Kids learn better by doing, but they won't do it unless it's fun. GravyStack is an app for kids and teens that uses the power of fun to break down barriers to learning, build self-motivated, powerful kids, and teach them about money.
It works because it’s fun
Play is one of the most impactful ways people learn. That's why we've created a highly engaging platform your whole family will want to use. GravyStack integrates learning into play to teach children and teens valuable lessons about money while they have fun, which means you don't have to nag them to learn.
Motivation Matters
Children learn more effectively when they are self-motivated rather than forced to learn. The desire for self-motivation is why allowance and other externally imposed systems don’t work. They lead to nagging, resentment, and unfulfilled promises. We created GravyStack to give kids control over their finances. They can earn their own money, set their own goals, and make choices about their finances. When involved in decision-making, kids are more likely to see things through to the end.
That's why GravyStack is the best overall app for learning to manage finances.
- 42% of teens say they currently learn about personal finance from social media.
- Only 50% of teens say they learned about earning. It's no wonder they spend past their means!
- 32% of teens don't know the difference between debit and credit cards.
- The current system just isn't working! Our kids deserve better…
Empower kids to earn their own money
GravyStack is the best finance app for kids because it lets them watch their money flow through their Money Machine™ into their Save, Spend, and Share Jars. Through this money movement simulator, kids can see how their money flows from beginning to end. This helps them understand cash flow and handle it with confidence. The financial competency and confidence kids gain from using our tools is what allows them to grow up and create their most meaningful and fulfilled lives, and that’s the end game.
GravyStack is different from other finance apps because it makes learning about money fun and relevant for kids and teens.
