Today’s parents are turning to debit cards and apps to teach kids financial responsibility, but most of these tools are just prepaid wallets dressed up with fancy features.
The Klutch Child Allowance mini-app is different. It’s built on a real credit card infrastructure, giving families unmatched flexibility, control, and rewards. And it's the only child allowance tool that’s part of a Visa Signature Credit account, not a debit card.
Credit vs Debit: Real Benefits, Not Just Training Wheels
Klutch is the only Visa Signature Credit card offering a full-featured child allowance solution. Unlike prepaid or debit-based cards, your child’s purchases are tied to your existing credit line. That means:
- No pre-funding or internal wallet transfers
- No loss of cashback rewards
- Full spending visibility and unified billing
- All while keeping your child on a card with its own rules and limits.
Dynamic Controls that Teach Responsibility
Using Klutch’s Child Allowance mini-app, you can create:
- Daily or weekly spending caps
- Category and merchant-based limits
- Automated rules that adjust based on behavior
Want to block fast food after $30/week? Or pause the card when school’s in session? You can do that.
Transparency You Can Actually Use
Every purchase comes with deep merchant data, location, terminal ID, MCC, entry method, tokenization status, and more. It’s the kind of information that helps kids understand their spending, not just log it.
Built to Grow with Your Family
The Klutch platform includes modular mini-apps—like Budgeting, AI Insights, and Savings Goals—so you can evolve your child’s financial journey as they grow. No other card system offers this level of flexibility and extensibility.
Most child cards out there are debit cards in disguise. Klutch is the only solution that brings the power of a Visa Signature Credit to families—along with real-time controls, rich data, and cashback on every transaction.
If you want to teach smart money habits without sacrificing control or rewards, the Klutch Child Allowance mini-app is the tool designed for today’s families.

Klutch grew from our belief that people should demand more from technology. So when we noticed a critical need for more control and flexibility in how people make payments, we went to work pioneering a framework that delivered just that.
