About this app

Welcome to NatWest Rooster Money–a pocket money manager, piggy bank, reward chart, savings tracker & chores app–made to help families teach kids about money & savings goals. We also have a prepaid Visa debit card for kids that lets parents raise their youngsters to be money-wise.

With our allowance & kids money saving app, parents help children on their first steps towards understanding the value of money with a piggy bank–saving money–through to their first real-world purchases. Start with our reward chart, move them onto managing their own cash, earning with our chores & savings app, before trying a Rooster Card–a prepaid debit card for kids.

Parents can track pocket money, manage savings, create goals, set controls, add limits & enable their child to make real transactions online & in store.

We also offer the Rooster Card for extra features like our chore manager, extra family members, and setting interest rates. The Rooster Card is a kids’ card (also a teens debit card), which links to your family’s Rooster Money account.

Ratings and reviews

So far, so good. Using the paid version and have it set up for 4 kids. The "regulars" are good for my 16 y.o., who has phone, car insurance, etc. For the younger ones, it's just good motivation and a teaching tool. I contacted the developer with a question and suggestion, and got a response right away. *Update* My younger kids are learning so much about finances with this app. We homeschool, and I can't imagine anything better to teach the kids about earning, saving, and spending.

My kids love this app. They like that they can access their list of chores, submit them for approval, and monitor their savings goals on their own pads. I like the features that allow for pictures and a unique color background for each of your children. I have three kids and it's easy for me to approve their jobs with the color code and a quick swipe. I normally don't go beyond the free app to pay for it, but in this case I do believe it is worth it for my family. The developers have done a good job of creating a very easy to use and customizable app to manage a full household, with both parents having access, of chores and allowances. Having it on the app saves me from needing cash to distribute on time each week and also enables me to see balances and deduct (or add) on the fly for purchases or extra help they do. Highly recommend.

I'm using the free version at the moment, and it's fantastic. Plenty of features, yet very easy to use and navigate. I'm a FinTech nerd, and I love that this app lets me share that with my kids! It's been a huge help in teaching them to give first, save second, and enjoy the rest. Favorite features: Auto allowance splits Goal based savings Great visuals let my kids "see" where their money is going, even when I don't have cash on hand Either parent can add/remove money or stars any time anywhere
