As a parent, I started to teach my two kids about work ethics and personal finance, when they were 3 years old. I gave them opportunities to earn rewards from doing chores around the house. In my house, we called coins. Setting up the dinner is 1 coin. Loading up the washing machine is 2 coins. My kids used the coins to buy whatever they wanted (except candies). Now my kids become more financially responsible by learning income, expense, savings, debt, pricing along the way.

To keep track of the chores and rewards, we tried pencils and paper, whiteboard, and some tally apps. They were all good options, but we always missed some convenience. This is why we created TallyCoin.

What is TallyCoin?
TallyCoin is an app to keep track of the chores/jobs and earnings.

How TallyCoin works

We make it easier for the little helpers to track chores and rewards …

- One tap to add coins for a chore
- Easy to create, edit, and delete a helper
- Easy to create, edit, and delete a chore
- Check the past history, stats, and earnings
- When the little helpers want to spend the coins, deduct coins with ease.

This is an app made by a mother and 2 kids with love. The mother does the programming and the kids provide a lot of user feedback along the way. We will continue to improve the app along the way. Any feedback is welcome!

We designed the app with these principles:

- Super easy to use, with the least steps and time to use the app
- Only the features you need. No crowded features
- Your data is yours, only stored on your device, and never leave
