Problem & Opportunity

Fragmented money tools make it extremely difficult to navigate and foster good money habits with kids.

Collaboration during kid's early years build confidence and financially savvy teens and adults.

The experience

Most kids do not have their own devices at ages 6-12 so we are intentional about using existing Cash App paradigms to help parents facilitate parent and child collaboration.

We are also creating a sense of familiarity with these building blocks as kids grow into their teen and adult years.
