Allowance Tracker - Chores turns the family chore chart and the weekly allowance argument into one simple, shared system. Set up each kid, assign chores, and let payday calculate itself from what actually got done — no more mental math, no more "but I did do the dishes." Every family runs allowance differently. Some pay per chore, some pay a flat weekly rate with chores as a condition, some let kids earn toward a savings goal. Allowance Tracker - Chores is built to work the way your family actually runs it, not force you into someone else's system. Add each kid once, set the chores and the payout rule, and let the ledger carry the rest — including the bonuses and deductions that always get forgotten by the time payday actually rolls around. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Add every kid — each with their own chore list, balance, and history • Assign and schedule chores — daily, weekly, or one-off tasks with clear ownership • Track completion — mark chores done and watch the running ledger update itself • Automatic ledger — every payment, bonus, and deduction logged per kid, so nobody has to remember who was paid what • Add transactions — bonuses, deductions, or manual adjustments outside the regular chore payout • Savings tracking — help kids watch money add up toward a goal instead of just spending it • Family reports — see completion rates and payout history across every kid at a glance • Kid-friendly view — a simple chore list a child can actually check off themselves • Flexible payout rules — pay per chore, pay a flat weekly rate, or mix both depending on the kid and the task WHY ALLOWANCE TRACKER - CHORES • Ends the "did you do it" argument — completed chores and paid allowance are both logged, not remembered • Built for real families — works whether you have one kid or five, one chore a day or a full weekly list • Teaches money basics — kids see chores connect to money and money connect to savings, not just a number that appears • One ledger per kid — balances, bonuses, and deductions all live in the same place instead of scattered notes • Reports that actually help — a weekly view of who did what and who got paid what, without spreadsheets WHO IT'S FOR • Parents tired of tracking chores and allowance in their head or on paper • Families who want kids to connect completed chores to earned money • Parents teaching kids the basics of budgeting, saving, and responsibility • Households with more than one kid who need separate, clear ledgers • Anyone who has ever paid a kid the wrong amount, or paid twice, because nothing was written down Allowance Tracker - Chores isn't a bank account and doesn't move real money on its own — it's the family chore chart, the ledger, and the savings tracker that make allowance day simple instead of stressful. Set it up once, and every kid always knows exactly what they've done and exactly what they've earned. Download Allowance Tracker - Chores and make payday effortless.
