Description

Quick and simple: you pay for items kids buy, then deduct in the app. Schedule allowances and set savings goals. Become your child's money mentor and private banker!

Bomad - short for Bank of Mom and Dad - is a virtual piggy bank and allowance tracker app. It teaches kids financial literacy and helps parents keep track of pocket money for kids.

The tracker works like this:

You create a virtual piggy bank for them using the parent app on your phone, which they can track in the child app on their iPad, iPhone or other device, similar to the old roostermoney or bankaroo.

Then you set the app to add an allowance or pocket money weekly, or when they get birthday money or cash from the tooth fairy, they give it to you and you keep the money as your own, but you track it by adding it to their balance in the app

When your child wants to spend, you pay or give them cash, and deduct it from the tracker

So the account balance is just what you owe your child

Your child gets notifications for all transactions, including when their allowance or pocket money arrives

They can easily see how much they have in the app, and track what their money and allowance was spent on

By keeping track of it, your child really begins to understand money. Giving them an allowance or pocket money, however small, teaches them to budget and save (weekly allowances are best, especially for younger kids).

They stop nagging for stuff every time you're at the mall. They start thinking more about the future (e.g. how many more allowances will it take to reach a certain goal), and - with your guiding hand - they start making better spending and budgeting decisions. They learn financial literacy.

Bomad has many other cool features too: kids can track their progress toward savings goals and get paid for doing chores. Older kids can claim expenses and request money transfers to real bank accounts so they can spend on debit cards. You can also split the allowance or pocket money between different accounts - spending, saving, giving, etc. - like the old bankaroo and rooster money.

Bomad is more than a piggy bank app, it teaches kids better money habits. It’s also an allowance tracker and pocket money app. It makes handling money for kids a breeze for parents.

This Is The Best Piggy Bank App In The App Store!!!

I've been managing my kids "money-bank" on Notes on my iPhone for some time. I always knew there was likely an app or better way to manage, but for some reason I just never took the time to explore my options.

My son mowed our lawn and I forgot to update his balance in Notes. He was quick to remind me last night, and so I decided enough was enough. Your app is a PERFECT solution. Simple, clean, and free. I don't need the premium features yet as my kids are still young, but I can see how we could quickly grow into the premium subscription. Thanks for your brilliant solution. It seriously takes a load off my plate!!! Keep up the good work

Beautiful Elegant Allowance Tracker

I have tried about ten allowance tracking apps, and I gave up on all of them and eventually tracked in a spreadsheet. I also refuse to pay a monthly fee to use an app—I’m trying to teach my children responsible money practices here, and forgetting about yet another monthly subscription is irresponsible imo (Bomad is free but I would gladly pay a one-time payment).

All this to say Bomad is everything: beautiful design, simple to use, accommodates reoccurring payments and debits, does not complicate and gamify children’s chores and allowances. Thank you to the lovely developer who also provides helpful tips via newsletter on using the app and creating responsible money practices for our children.

Thank you very much, I'm glad the app is working well for your family.

Perfect

The app met everything we were looking for: simple set up, kids can customize their own images and create savings categories, I can set repeat deposits.

We used to have Rooster Money before it was blocked outside of the UK. Then we tried so many others. My kids didn’t like the user interface of Greenlight or GoHenry as well as several others. There were too many features and they didn’t like the visual graphics.

Then we found Bomad. It was perfect and all 3 of us are happy :) Thank you!

Thanks very much!
