Masrufi helps Muslim families raise money-smart kids. It turns everyday allowance, chores, and spending into hands-on lessons in saving, giving, and living Islamic financial values — all under a parent's control. Masrufi encourages parents to systematically talk with their kids about halal financial literacy. You are the bank. Masrufi is a simple, safe ledger: it tracks what each child has and what you owe them, but holds no real money and processes no payments. When your child earns, spends, or wants cash, you approve it and hand over the money yourself. No cards, no real transactions, no ads — just a calm, parent-guided way to learn. EVERY DOLLAR HAS A JOB — THE 4 BUCKETS Every time money comes in, it's automatically split into four buckets, each with a purpose: • Savings — grow toward a goal • Charity — set aside for Sadaqah or the 2.5% Zakah • Invest — money meant to grow over time • Spending — everyday needs and wants Giving and saving come before spending, so good habits become second nature. BUILT ON ISLAMIC FINANCIAL VALUES • A Zakah calculator that checks the nisab and works out the 2.5% • Lessons on halal earning, avoiding riba, Barakah, and honest trade • Charity built into the heart of the app, not bolted on FOR PARENTS • Approve every withdrawal, expense, and chore reward • Set weekly allowance manually or on an automatic schedule • Assign chores with rewards, and quizzes to build financial literacy • See each child's balances, goals, and progress at a glance • Conversation starters to talk about money the Islamic way FOR KIDS & TEENS • Log money received and purchases made • Set savings goals and watch them fill up • Earn XP, level up, keep streaks, and unlock achievements, get rewarded • Learn through quizzes and a growing library of money knowledge cards • Discover halal ways to earn in the Earn section SAFE & PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No real payments and no in-app purchases • No ads, no third-party analytics, no advertising or crash-reporting SDKs • Kids can't be contacted; child accounts are created only by a verified parent • We never sell or share your family's data Masrufi is free. Start turning pocket money into a lifetime of good money habits — the halal way. Questions? support@masrufi.com
