Acorns Early (formerly GoHenry) is the smart money app and debit card for your kids that teaches them financial wellness and the value of money. Young people aged 6-18 can learn about earning, saving, and smart spending with features like automated allowance, task lists, and gamified educational quizzes and videos. Then they can practice their skills in the real world with their own debit card. All while parents watch and guide with flexible parental controls.
