Managing your child's pots

Pots can help your child put money aside for specific goals.

Your child can create Pots, name them and track their progress, if Pots are available in their app. You and your child can both add money to Pots and take money out, unless a Pot is locked.

Adding money to a Pot

Your child can add money to a Pot from their app:

  1. Go to the Home screen.

  2. Scroll down to Pots.

  3. Tap the Pot.

  4. Tap Add money.

  5. Enter the amount.

  6. Confirm the move.

You can also add money to your child’s Pots from your app.

Locking and unlocking Pots

You can lock a Pot if your child is saving for something important. When a Pot is locked, your child can’t withdraw money until the unlock date or until you unlock it.

Only the parent or guardian can lock or unlock Pots. Children can’t lock or unlock their own Pots.
