Review of the GoHenry, GoHenry prepaid card:

Convenient, Safe and OMG much much more.

Wow, where do you start? It's a great way to teach kids about all aspects of day to day money-saving and spending. What's more, as a parent you are always in control of whats going on and are aware of what the kids are doing with their money for example, how and where they are spending their money. I get an automatic message on my phone where ever I am to say how much money my child has just spent on her card, and what she has spent it on. That's great for peace of mind as a parent. You can set up regular pocket money payments or reward payments for doing chores. You can transfer money from your balance to theirs in an instant for that immediate reward. One of the best things about this card is the Kids can set up single or multiple savings targets, and money inside the card goes into a piggy bank for them. If they set a target it shows what they need to save each week, then it will do it for them automatically so when the pocket money goes in it automatically goes into their internal piggy bank and not into their spending money part. They can transfer extra money in or out of their piggy bank into their spending money when they need to. Young kids love having their own card to spend in shops, you should see the smile on there faces as they get their card out and scan it at the till. They also get the chance to choose what the card looks like, so its personal to them it even has their name on. Finally, I find one of the best things I like about the card is you can swap money back and forward to your kids account at any time buy the app. so if you are out shopping and the kids don't have their card with them but they want to buy something, I can say "ok I will buy it for you but I'm taking the money from your card, and I can do it there and then their money goes back into my balance, probably to come back to them when their next pocket money payment is automatically paid from mine to there balance. That also reminds me of one more great thing about the card, the kids get their money transferred automatically at whatever time I set. (our pocket money day is a Friday). "What's the big deal?" you ask, the answer is simple... no more kids screaming at me "daddy wheres my pocket money" "Dad it's my pocket money day wheres my cash?" Then me frantically searching to find money to give them on the spot. That just doesn't happen any more. no worries for me then... happy days. Quite simply put, its a teaching tool about day to day money management for kids, For any adult who wants to know precisely how there kids are managing their money it is perfect, it makes my life easier as don't need to find cash for them on pocket money days. With all those things sorted, my life is much less stressful, just for that peace of mind, it's irreplaceable. Reviewed on: 19th January 2021
