Greenlight offers a money management app designed for families, focusing on teaching kids and teens about financial literacy. The app features a debit card for children, allowing parents to manage allowances linked to chores or direct deposits. It promotes saving by offering interest on savings and setting savings goals. Additionally, Greenlight provides an investing platform for families to explore stocks and ETFs, and a credit card that rewards families with cash back on purchases, which can be invested for future expenses. Unlike competitors, Greenlight emphasizes financial education and parental control, enabling children to build credit before adulthood. The goal is to empower families to manage money effectively and build long-term wealth.
