Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 175 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers find the platform fantastic for teaching children about money, offering a safe and simple way to build real-world financial skills. The app is praised for being user-friendly, allowing parents to easily manage spending, set goals, and receive instant notifications on transactions. Many appreciate the convenience of instant money transfers, which helps children have funds when needed and gives them a sense of independence while still providing parental oversight. However, some customers reported issues with unexpected deductions, difficulty retrieving money from accounts, and problems with membership fees. There were also complaints about the app's reliability, particularly concerning data usage information for child accounts and slow processing of payments, which sometimes led to children being unable to pay for essentials.

Spriggy is the best thing out there for my 10 year old nephew. Many payments and games are online purchases, so giving him cash doesn’t help. He has a set spending limits and adores his card. He has to do little jobs/chores to get the money though, they are all in the app. Like his homework, cleaning his room, washing up etc. I feel better that he always has money on him, through his card. Absolutely a win-win situation.

Both of my kids are spriggy motivated!

Both of my kids are spriggy motivated!
We started off with the 1/2 method (half to savings, half to spendings) now they’re 25% spendings and 75% savings as they love watching their balance grow.

Big tick of a approval from mum and dad!

Debit card for kids

Great product for kids that need to pay for things without you being there. You have ultimate control over the pursestrings and they get some fun out of using their own card. Five stars Spriggy

Do not get this for your kids

Based on my experience, I believe the service does not meet the standards advertised, and may be misleading to consumers. I am reporting them to the ACCC
The advertised data toggle feature for child accounts is unreliable. In practice, it often takes up to 30 minutes to activate or deactivate, not the 15 minutes stated.
At least once a week, the data service fails entirely—either jamming or not activating at all—leaving children without access.
The support team has provided inconsistent and contradictory information, and in some cases, responses appear to be inaccurate or misleading.

Thank you for letting us know that Jasmine. We appreciate your feedback about the balance limits.

We do have a SPRK mode for kids who are 13+ which increases this limit to $4999 but we can understand if this isn't the right fit.
