Hi Zach, thank you for the five-star review! We are glad to hear that you are loving the app and finding the financial teaching tools helpful. Thanks for being a part of our community.

Very good for teaching your children habits of saving, investing, and learning the value of a dollar. The allowance allocation tool is great, as are bite sized lessons. However, just like anything else in this world, the app won’t magically make your children billionaires or advanced traders by 7 years old, but with using your own knowledge of money with the acorns tool will help your children do better with money rather than big companies telling them credit cards are great & enroll in all of them or that student loans will be easily paid off once your making huge money out of college. Unless you’re in the select few you won’t be a millionaire out of college. All in all the App does what it claims to do and can only put blame on ourselves for not teaching our children the value of money properly. If you’re not the best with money maybe another trusted family member or friend can help out. Good luck!

Hi Tommie - thank you for the 5* review! It's great to hear that you are enjoying the app 😊
Love it!
The app is really easy to use. It helps my 11 year old son keep track of the assigned tasks/chores for his allowance, how much money he has and can spend. It allows him to move funds to savings. If you have an investment account for your child with Acorns, you can link your accounts seamlessly. You can share a link for family to contribute to your child's accounts. I am very pleased.

Someone made unauthorized charges to my daughters account and Acorns was unhelpful in stopping the transactions or helping her recoup the money lost. Very difficult to transfer money out and cancel service.

Hi Kelly,
We’re sorry to hear about your daughter’s experience and understand how concerning unauthorized activity on an account can be, as well as how important it is to ensure that your daughter's card is secure, and we will always do what we can to help.
We’d appreciate the chance to look into this further. I have arranged a call today to discuss the issues with you, so we can review the transactions and discuss next steps.
You can also contact our support team directly please give us a call at 855 739 2859. Monday to Friday 9am - 8pm EST, Saturday/Sunday 9am - 5pm EST.

Hi Loren, thank you for your four-star review. The monthly fee is what allows us to keep the lights on and, most importantly, deliver the quality service your family relies on. It directly pays for three critical areas:
👨🏻💻Our Dedicated Support Team: You are speaking to me right now! We staff a specialized team of real people, available to help with card issues, app questions, and financial education features. A basic bank often routes you to long phone queues or automated bots. Your fee ensures you can reach us when you need us.
📲Continuous App Development: The fee funds our team of engineers and designers who are constantly adding those premium features—like goal setting, chore integration, and new security updates—that make our app the best financial tool for your child.
🔐Security and Card Management: We pay fees to card networks (like Visa/Mastercard) and data security experts to ensure every transaction is secure, and that the instant card-locking feature works perfectly, giving you complete control and peace of mind. review
