Compared

A jar, a kids' card, or PocketPals?

PocketPals never holds your money. It keeps count of the jobs, your checks and the split, while you pay the way you already do.

Do I pay for each child?

No. One price covers the whole family, however many kids you have.

What happens after my founder year?

Founders pay half price for 12 months, then A$6 a month or A$60 a year. We'll remind you 30 days before the price goes up.

Yes. Prices are in Australian dollars and include GST.

What if the founder spots are full?

You can still start a free week. After it, you pay the standard price.
