Quiddo
QuiddoAussie-made chores and pocket money tracker.
Kids earn their pocket money by ticking off chores, then watch their balance climb. They save up for what they actually want, and you pay on your card when they're ready. No cash, no spreadsheet, no IOUs to forget by Friday.

Now on iPhone, and Quiddo works in your browser too. Android coming soon.
What is Quiddo?
We built Quiddo because, with four kids, it was becoming a nightmare keeping track of who had what left over from birthdays, and which kid had already blown their last five bucks. We tried a spreadsheet. It lasted about a fortnight, because nobody has time to hunt down the right tab and fix broken formulas every week.
Quiddo is a simple tracker. Kids earn a balance through tasks and weekly pocket money, and you can split that balance into buckets like Spending, Savings and Giving. When they want to buy something, you pay on your card and log it as a spend. They can see their buckets and savings goals on their device or yours.
You hold the money the whole time, the Bank of Mum and Dad in all but name. Your kids see their balance and goals update in real time, and watching the number change is what makes it feel real. No bank account needed, and there's no minimum age.
Works in dollars or whatever currency your family likes to use. One plan covers unlimited kids.
Not every job is worth a dollar
Most pocket money apps just move money around. Quiddo tells the difference between the jobs kids get paid for and the ones they simply have to do, so pocket money means something.
Tasks that earn
Wash the car, rake the leaves, help with the little ones. Attach a dollar value, and when the job is done and approved, their balance goes up. Kids see the reward for the effort straight away.
Jobs that just have to get done
Making the bed, feeding the cat, homework. These do not pay extra, but Quiddo holds back the weekly pocket money until enough of them are ticked off. You set the threshold, or release a percentage based on how many got done.
The result: kids learn that some things you do because they are yours to do, and some things you do to get ahead. That lesson is the whole point.
Money kids can see, and a view that is theirs
Most trackers give kids one number and leave it there. Quiddo splits their money into buckets they can watch, and gives older kids a screen of their own to check.
Money split before it is spent
Each kid's money can flow into buckets like Spending, Savings and Giving. Pocket money splits across them the day it lands, so some is set aside before anyone thinks about spending it. Kids learn to divide money, not just count it.
A view that is theirs
Older kids get their own login on their own device, in their own colour. They watch their balance climb, check what is left on a goal, and see which tasks still need doing. It gives them a reason to keep at it without you chasing.
A pocket money app with no bank account or card
Quiddo is not a bank and not a prepaid card. There's no kids' debit card to activate, no account to open and no monthly card fee. Your child's pocket money lives as a virtual balance you both manage in the app, and you pay for what they buy on your own card once they've saved enough.
The card-based pocket money apps add up to roughly $60 to $120 a year once fees are counted. Quiddo is $1.99 a month with a 14-day free trial, and because there's no card, there's nothing to lose, replace or top up.
Your family's data stays yours. We never sell it or build profiles on your kids.

Why families use Quiddo
The chores get done, and the pocket money looks after itself.
Responsibilities vs tasks
Some jobs kids just have to do. Others they get paid for. Quiddo tracks both, and holds the weekly allowance until the basics are ticked off.
Task approvals
Kids finish a task and it lands in your queue. Give it the tick and their balance goes up straight away.
Money buckets
Split each kid's money into buckets like Spending, Savings and Giving. Pocket money can flow into them automatically, so money is earmarked before it's spent.
Savings goals
Pick a goal and track what's left. Kids can see exactly how many more tasks it'll take to get there.
Auto pocket money
Set a day and an amount once, and every week Quiddo drops it into each kid's balance for you.
No cash necessary
No cash needs to change hands. Kids build up a digital balance, and you settle purchases on your own card when they're ready to spend.
Unlimited kids
One kid or ten, it's the same price. Add as many children as your family needs.
How to get started
Takes about five minutes.
Create your family
Sign up and name your family workspace, then add each kid. Everything in Quiddo belongs to a family, and it takes a couple of taps to set up.
Set up pocket money
Pick an amount and a pay day, and Quiddo handles the rest. The same amount drops into each kid's balance every week without you doing anything.
Add tasks
Set paid tasks with a dollar value kids earn on your approval, and responsibilities they simply have to do. Quiddo holds back the weekly pocket money until enough responsibilities are ticked off.
They save, you pay
When a kid wants to buy something, you pay on your card and log it in the app. They watch their balance and savings buckets on their device or yours.

Why isn't it free?
Charging a little keeps Quiddo paying its own way, so we can keep improving it for families instead of chasing ads or selling data. At $15 for the whole year it works out to less than a fortnight of pocket money for one kid, and it covers every child in the family. There's a 14-day free trial too, so you can try the whole thing before you pay a cent.
