To kids, it sounds like a great idea at the time. You know better. And you need them to learn better.

Greenlight is a digital financial app built to teach kids and teens how to handle money responsibly. It gives them the autonomy to spend and save money. Meanwhile, you get peace of mind as a parent with notifications from Greenlight every time your kids make a transaction.

Here’s how it works:

• Add up to two parents and up to five kids.
• The kids you enroll will each receive a Greenlight debit card of their own.
• Send allowances directly to your kids or send money instantly to your kids’ Greenlight cards. You can even manage their household chores on the app.
• Set spending limits, and get a notification whenever your kids spend money.

Workday offers a Greenlight Core membership at no cost or $4.99 off any higher-tier plans. The higher-tier plans include additional features, like an investing platform for families, more cash back on savings, up to 1% cash back on purchases*, location sharing, and more.

Once you're signed up, you can manage your account through the app. Download the app on the mobile apps page.
