Excellent app and cash card for the kids

5
The independence this gives my 12 year old daughter is great. Makes her feel grown up responsible and gives her a healthy respect for money, how to earn it and how much things cost, overall a brilliant system. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Rooster cards for kids

5
Really pleased with my two Rooster cards for my two children. They love saving up pocket money and seeing their totals via the app on my phone. Purchasing on line is easy and as a parent I like the additional step of needing the CVV code. Very easy to set up. Easy to navigate app. Account costs very reasonable too. Well done to Rooster.

Finally found something to encourage my daughter to do chores!!

5
I have tried numerous ways of getting my daughter (9) to clean her room and do chores around the home! My eldest son (19) never did chores is lazy and thinks I’m a money tree!! I decided not to make the same mistake and wanted my daughter to learn to manage her own money! After numerous failed attempts, to try and get her off her iPad and moving! I spotted rooster and decided to try it! A year on she’s still happily doing chores and she’s loved being able to spend her money online during lock down!! A fab app with no charges for uploading cash to the parent wallet unlike other apps (errrrm go Henry lol) just a one off yearly fee! Honestly can’t fault it! Easy to use and good value for money whilst teaching a valuable life lesson! Hopefully she will get a part time job when she’s older and save the money tree a fortune!! :) Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Simple intuitive intro to money

5
This app is so easy to use and gives children a fantastic foundation in understanding the importance of building a positive relationship with money. The save, give spend pots allow children to make autonomous decisions about how they want to divide their monies. Would (and do) highly recommend! Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Easy to use and navigate

Has been a great and easy way to teach my children about the benefits of completing chores and the value of money. The app and card are easy to use on purchases, to keep up to date with balances and to manage the amounts you give. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Amazing tool for my child

5
Our 9 yo has recently started using a rooster card and she loves it! Now she has the ability to save for things she really wants and has a much better idea about how money works. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Easy pocket money

5
This makes giving my children weekly pocket money so easy. We’ve been using it a year and I’ve found over that time they have realised how good it is to save for a particular thing they want through the savings goal feature. Also they have been learning that by putting part of their pocket money into the savings pot, they earn interest! I’m very happy with this app. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021
