Royals games, bowling, movies, arcades — every month.

Allowance

Weekly earnings for responsibilities and good work.

Vacations

Annual camping trips, road trips, big experiences.

Gaming & Tech

Xbox, PlayStation, personal devices, screen time.

School

On-site tutoring, public school, vocational paths.

See it for yourself

The real stuff

Earn real allowance every week.

Your own space in the home.

Go to your school — or we find you one.

Your birthday gets celebrated, every year.

Monthly outings. Real ones.

Holidays are a big deal here. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Halloween — every one, every year.

A look inside

The camera roll.

Real outings. Real nights out. Unstaged, from our phones to you.
