What's New in MyKidsSpending | MySpending

3.1.4

October 19, 2026

We've updated MyKidsSpending! This build introduces a refreshed UI, smoother navigation, and performance improvements while keeping all existing features intact. What's New: • Area Windows — Displays ordering area hours and labels closed areas, helping avoid orders outside allowed times. • Balances that match “what can I spend?” — Student selection and balance areas highlight spendable balances and pending orders. • Student that needed “latest school to receive funding?” — When adding money to an account linked to an older student record, you’ll see a clear warning with the option to proceed anyway. • A steadier first impression — Lists and tabs use a lightweight skeleton while data loads. • Answers when you’re stuck — FAQ with a helpful guide when you need more assistance than what’s available in the app.

Love this app for my daughter’s first year in HS. Very convenient and easy to navigate. I love that I can see her food choices as well.

Too many surcharges& fees

I’m not sure if they make you aware but they charge us as parents who are adding the money a % based on how much you load. It also charges different fees based on the form of payment. But wait it gets better!! Not only do you pay all those fees but then you when your child actually makes a purchase at school they will automatically charged 0.75 for a processing fee… so if he forgets something and has to go back in line, another .75 is charged for one drink!!! Private school or not the food is just way too expensive. Not just the food but just adding money for your child to get said food is insane!!
