No mention of $60 dollar fee when registering for this, just seen an email in my inbox saying thanks we have deducted our annual fee from your card.
Just be upfront about the costs

Amazing!! Although my daughter who has a phone was unable to use Apple Pay wth it for a couple years it was a bit frustrating.
Amazing
Spriggy is a great app for kids, fully free, and amazing. It’s easy to log in, order, and set up. It came to my house so quick and my daughter was so excited to use it. The designs are so cute, my daughter picked the rainbow pastel one. spriggy is so easy to use, you can save money, set up goals, for example my daughter made a saving for car goal, you can invest, create jobs that you’re kid and earn money for doing, set up weekly pocket money, and see what you’re kid has spent their money on. You can even lock their card and use it over seas. Over all Spriggy is a great app and my daughter and I love it.

Constant issues
Don’t know how anyone gives this app more than 1 star. I constantly have to delete it and install it again as it keeps freezing and not letting me log in. I use it to control my sons days use on his phone but the phone data on and off function is never reliable. Sit there forever waiting or it to either turn off or come back on. Highly, highly unreliable service. Just junk for what it costs me every month.

Crash bandicoot is too hard
I love crash bandicoot but some of the levels are bad and make me eat my self and vomit myself out contemplating whether to eat my hair or if I don’t like the texture
Disappointed with customer support
Have been using Spriggy for a while for both of my kids with no issues. Since the latest update trying to make it “better” the developers had an absolute shocker, in removing the ability to go back and approve jobs from previous week(s). Spriggy is only contactable via the app and then the responses are often cut and paste responses or once that didn’t read the message in the first place. I’ve been going back and forth for over 2.5 months trying to approve and pay weeks or jobs that were missed. When I try to approve the jobs waiting, it just loops between the screen and the next with no ability to actually approve and pay the jobs.
The teen SPRK app is still not updated to look back past two weeks, after they were aware of the problem months ago.
Am really disappointed in the Spriggy customer service, and no ability to chat to someone when money is involved is not on.
I’d honestly consider looking at the other apps available that do the same the thing.

Painful
Constantly have to uninstall and reinstall. Drives me insane.
Unreliable and Broken. Unsafe to use for the kids.
Don’t trust this for your kids.
App is really unreliable and at least once a week broken.
No support for hours while your kids are strangled without access to money.

Not suitable for a teen’s growing independence
Think carefully before getting Spriggy for your teen. A card designed to support growing independence needs reliable, timely support when something goes wrong. My teen lost her card while out for the day and, despite needing urgent help accessing her money, there was no way to speak to a human. I was trapped in chatbot loops and eventually told to wait several hours for a response. If your teen is out independently and suddenly has no access to money, waiting hours for support simply isn’t good enough. A financial product for young people needs accessible human support when it matters.

My kids use
My kid can go to the shops without loosing her money and can just pay with her card or Apple Pay and it’s better because I can manage her allowance and pocket money also she can put money into her savings for her goals

Update
The new update has overcomplicated what was a perfectly good and easy to navigate app. Even the kids are confused now.
Was a good app
I’ve noticed a few things slipping. I can only assume they are cost cutting. First they changed the app, it used to be that all jobs were paid as soon as approved - the new update broke this. Now you get a big bold button to approve the job and a smaller, less obvious one to pay it straight away. Don’t press the wrong button though because then you will have to go hunting for the pay day section. I’ve found it a couple of times and I still have trouble le remembering where it is. ANOTHER separate issue is that while all these transfers are internal we have gone back to the 1990s when you had to wait for the fund to clear. Transfers come up as “pending” for ages. I tried complaining and was told this sometimes happens - except it has been happening every time recently. Not sure why they aren’t acting on all the negative feedback they have been getting.

Transfers
It takes too long for the money to transfer
DONT SIGN UP
I canceled our membership and they continue to take yearly subscription fees, you cannot get through to the company it’s operated by bots and no one gets back to you! I am
Literally stuck paying every year!
Literally stuck paying every year!
New update is terrible
My kids and I cannot work out how to approve jobs other than on the other. Roll the update back, or give our subscription money back.
