US – The app-controlled debit card helps children to monitor their finances and enables their parents to supervise their transactions remotely.
In today’s fast-paced, always-on world, Millennials often lag behind older consumers in terms of acquiring key skills needed for adult life such as being financially responsible. The Current card, which enables users to shop independently in-store or online, is designed to foster financial intelligence in younger generations.
Parents use the Current app to deposit an allowance into their child’s account and control aspects of their spending, including blocking certain establishments such as bars and casinos, and closing the card. They can also assign tasks to their child that unlock monetary rewards once completed, and a Giving Wallet feature enables users to easily donate to charity.
