Phone Apps Can Help
You Learn About Money
How Much Money?
Virtual Bank for Kids
The App: Bankaroo
For ages 5–13; available free on
iOS and Android
How It Works: Bankaroo is a virtual bank
that helps kids keep track of their allowance
and other money. The app was created by an 11-year-old
who realized firsthand how important it was to track her cash
after wanting to buy something she saw in a store—only to
have her dad remind her she’d already burned through her
allowance.
Kids enter their virtual allowance amount, set goals for things
they want to save for, and debit any funds they’ve spent.
Parents can make one-time virtual gifts, schedule allowance
payments or match their child’s savings.
Teaching the Value of a Dollar
The App: Renegade Buggies
For ages 13 and up; available free on
iOS and Android
How It Works: By racing a shopping cart
at top speed down the street and picking up dollars, coins and
products along the way, kids get to work their reflexes as well
as their math skills in this highly interactive app developed by
the National Center for Families Learning and supported by
the Dollar General Literacy Foundation.
Teaching Personal Finance & Money
The App: Mint: Personal Finance & Money
For ages 13 and up; available free on
iOS and Android
How It Works: From Intuit, the makers
of TurboTax, QuickBooks, Mint Bills, and Quicken: the free
Mint app helps you spend smarter and save more. Easily
pull all your accounts, cards and investments into one place

figure out which items on their list give them the best bang
for their buck. If they take too long or miss a money-saving
opportunity, a pop-up message steers them in the right
direction.

reminders, and get customized tips for reducing fees and saving
money. You can also check your credit score for free while learning
how you can improve it.
There are plenty out there and for free. There are cool new apps
that will help you learn about money. I mean, if your using a phone
or tablet you might as well learn valuable money lessons too, right?
