Advert: Pigzbe – The New Pocket Money App

Do you remember how you learnt about money when you were growing up?

I certainly do and it couldn’t be any different to how children learn about money nowadays. Of course, some aspects are still the same as when I was growing up. For example, we still teach children the value of coins and notes. We still teach them how to add up the different values of each coin and how to work out how much change you should give someone if they don’t have the exact money, but there’s so much more to learn nowadays too.

I actually can’t remember the last time I paid for something with cash. My purse is always empty and that’s because I use my debit card to pay for everything. My husband is the same, and on occasion he even uses his mobile phone to pay for things!

How things have changed since I was a kid!

Teaching my own children about money, and in particular, money management is something that’s important to me. I want them to understand the value of money, how much things cost and how to save money.

That’s why I’ve teamed up with Pigzbe. Pigzbe is a new pocket money app that helps kids aged 6-8 learn great money habits.

Like many parents my husband and I give our children pocket money every week. They usually put this into their piggy banks and then on occasion, we go into the city centre to do some shopping so they can spend their pocket money. This all sounds great, until you’re standing in a busy shop watching your child count their pound coins to pay for something! It’s not very practical!

That’s why I like Pigzbe so much! Pigzbe is a new way of doing pocket money. It makes financial education child’s play by helping kids 6+ learn the value of money in a fun and rewarding way. 

Pigzbe combines the Pigzbe Piggy Wallet, an educational pocket money app for kids and parents, and their own digital currency, Wollo. Here’s how it all works! 

Pigzbe helps children:

• Understand the value of money
• Make the connection between hard work and rewards
• Develop responsible saving habits
• Develop their independence and self-sufficiency
• Prepare kids for a future of digital money
