PointJar is a family points game: your child earns points for completed chores and good behaviour and trades them for rewards you agreed on. No nagging, no fridge charts — everything runs in the app and parents always have the final say. The app is free, with no ads and no tracking. Tasks and rewards are built on established international research on child motivation. Try the demo without signing in. HOW IT WORKS • Your child taps a finished task — you get a notification • You approve with OK or decline with X — points are added automatically • Kids request rewards from the shop — approved by you as well • The child's level only ever grows — motivation stays high FOR PARENTS • Your own catalogue of tasks and rewards (a starter list is included) • Deductions with a daily cap — the balance never drops below zero • Undo mistakes within 24 hours, a full history of every point • A second parent has the same rights as you, grandparents watch; everyone joins with a code or by e-mail • Several children in one family, each with their own points and goal FOR KIDS • Their own screen with a wallet, a goal and a shop • Kids take back a task or reward request tapped by mistake • The goal reward fills up with every point saved • Celebration animations for reached goals and new levels FAMILY-SAFE • Every family sees only its own data • Nobody can enter a family without a code from a parent • Apple or Google sign-in, no extra passwords Available in English, German, Czech and Slovak — every family member picks their own language.
