Mobile app (2026)

PennyCrew

A family money app where children earn pocket money for chores and save for goals, and parents always know where every penny is.

PennyCrew parent and child home screens in dark mode, next to the line "Family money, together".

The problem

Pocket money is mostly cash and promises. Families lose track of what a child has earned, what a parent is still holding for them, and what has already been spent or saved.

What we proposed and built

A tracker, not a bank: every entry moves money between places (in a pocket, with a parent or in a goal), so nothing is counted twice. Cash changes hands only when both people confirm, and the money rules run on the server.

A child’s money split into pocket, with Dad and in goals.

Dad has confirmed handing over £2.00, and the child taps “Yes, I got it!”.
