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.

We have been using this app for our three children ages 12, 10, and 5. It works well for us. I used to be scrounging for the correct change for the allowance, and this makes it much easier. We use the full version and so we list chores and they check them off as they complete them which submits them to us to approve them on the app. We do the percentage setting so if they don't do their chores to an approved level they get a little bit less allowance. Wish there was a Windows version too!

Dissapointed. Another app requesting a monthly plan but not offering many features. They do have some cool stuff but it's too bar bones for me to dump money into it. Much more work to be done for this to be usable by many different styles of people. I do however like the interface. It is smooth and looks decent. And enjoy that each person can have their own account and don't have to share like many other apps. Edit: no longer available in Canada. Good thing I stopped relying on this app.

I had originally rated this app 1 star. I'm very happy I checked it out again after they made some changes--it now does everything I need it to do. I can set automatic 'deposits' split between the spend/save/charity accounts (it even does the math for me!), and tranferring money between accounts or to the kids' goals is effortless. Being able to add picture to the goals is also a nice touch.
