Not a bank
For families who want the lesson before the bank account.

- Parent-controlled records and access
- Clear tracking for saving, earning, and spending conversations
Step 01
Why not being a bank is the point
Some families want a youth bank account. Others want to teach saving before adding cards, transfers, fees, or account paperwork. Tiny Treasury is for the second group.
The app records what your family has agreed to. The parent decides where the real money is kept and when it moves.
Step 02
The record still matters
Even when no money moves through the app, a clear ledger changes the conversation. Kids can see how a balance grew, what they spent, and what they earned.
- Use it beside a cash envelope.
- Use it beside a parent-held savings account.
- Use it before deciding whether a youth bank account is needed.
Step 03
Plain language trust
Tiny Treasury is not a bank, brokerage, payment processor, custodial account, investment account, or financial adviser. It is software for parent-managed family savings records.
