How It Works

Four simple steps from sign-up to pocket money — no setup headaches, 7-day free trial included.

1

Parent Starts Their Free Trial

Sign up with email in under a minute. Set your children's names, ages, and the pocket money rate per correct answer — even 1p per answer adds up beautifully.

2

Child Picks Their Avatar & Plays

Choose spelling, maths or reading. The game reads questions aloud, adjusts to their level automatically, and gives helpful hints if they get stuck — never demoralising.

3

Scores Build Into a Pocket Money Total

Every correct answer adds to a visible running total. The parent area tracks daily and lifetime scores — complete with a progress report showing accuracy and struggle words.

4

Parent Reviews & Rewards

You decide when to pay out. Tap the amount in the Parent Area to record the payment and reset the counter. No money ever changes hands through the app — you're always in control.

Why Children Actually Stick With It

  • 💸
    Real-feeling rewards

    Pocket money is concrete and meaningful. It's not stars on a chart — it's something children can spend.

    Every answer gets instant feedback. No waiting for a teacher to mark work — the loop is fast and motivating.

  • 📈
    Automatic level adjustment

    Gets harder as they improve, easier when they struggle — always pitched at the right level of challenge.

  • 🔊
    Voice support throughout

Designed for
Every Kind of Learner

This game was built because the creator struggled with spelling and maths at school — living with ADHD and dyslexia. They knew that learning doesn't have to feel like a punishment.

Every design decision — the short questions, the instant rewards, the voice support, the hint system, the multiple choice lifeline — was made with neurodivergent learners specifically in mind. But it works brilliantly for every child.

ADHD-friendly Dyslexia support Dyscalculia aware Autism-friendly SPD considerate All learners welcome

🎯 Short, Focused Bursts

Questions are quick-fire — perfect for children who struggle to sustain attention. A daily cap prevents overwhelm while keeping streaks meaningful.

🔊 Voice Read-Aloud Support

Every spelling word is spoken clearly with an example sentence. Stories can be read aloud. Children who process language auditorily are fully supported.

💡 Hints Not Humiliation

Wrong answers trigger helpful hints — never discouraging language. The multiple choice lifeline means children always have a path to getting it right.

📊 Invisible Struggle Tracking

Words your child struggles with are quietly logged in the parent area — no red marks in front of your child. Parents can review and practise together.

Parents Are Always In Control

A PIN-protected parent area gives you complete oversight — no surprises.

💷

Set Your Own Rates

Choose how many pence per correct answer. Spelling earns more for first-attempt success than second — rewarding effort.

⏱️

Daily Question Caps

Set a maximum number of questions per game per day. Controls screen time and keeps daily totals within a budget you're comfortable with.

📊

Progress Reports

30-day charts showing questions answered, correct answers, and accuracy by game. See at a glance which subjects need more attention.

📝

Struggle Word List

Any spelling word answered incorrectly is added to a private parent list — perfect for focussed practice and school test preparation.

👧

Multiple Profiles

Add as many children as you like under one account. Each has their own avatar, level, and independent pocket money total.

🎯

Daily Goal Bonus

Set a daily question target. When your child hits it, they earn a bonus — teaching goal-setting as well as spelling and maths.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does The Pocket Money Game cost?
The first 7 days are completely free — no card required, full access to everything. After your trial, it's £3.99 per month or £12.99 per year (saving £35 compared to monthly). There are no adverts and no in-app purchases ever. You can cancel at any time from the Parent Area.
Is this game good for children with ADHD or dyslexia?
Yes — it was built by a parent with ADHD and dyslexia specifically to make learning less frustrating and more rewarding. Short questions with immediate rewards suit the ADHD brain beautifully. Voice read-aloud, helpful hints, and the multiple-choice lifeline all support dyslexic learners. We always say: if it works for a neurodivergent child, it works brilliantly for all children.
What age is The Pocket Money Game for?
The game supports children from age 5 (Year 1) through to age 11 (Year 6) and beyond. It covers the full KS1 and KS2 curriculum — spelling word lists, maths for every year group, and levelled reading comprehension. Level 6 extends into secondary-ready content for advanced learners.
Does my child actually receive real money?
No — the game tracks scores as a pocket money total that parents review and decide when to pay. All payment decisions are made entirely by the parent, and no money ever changes hands through the app. Think of it like a digital reward chart that parents can back with real pocket money whenever they choose.
Does it cover the UK national curriculum?
Yes. Spelling uses the KS1 Year 1 and Year 2 common word lists, and the KS2 Year 3/4 and Year 5/6 statutory spelling lists. Maths covers Year 1 through Year 6 content aligned to the national curriculum, including all times tables (2× to 12×), fractions, decimals, percentages, geometry and algebra.
Can I control how much time my child spends on it?
Yes — in the Parent Area you can set a daily question cap for each game. Once your child reaches the limit, that game is locked for the day. This controls screen time and also means the daily pocket money total stays within a budget you're comfortable with. Any questions answered beyond the cap are free — they don't earn pocket money but children can keep practising.
