Pulse Cash
Teach your kids real money skills through everyday chores. Convert points to dollars, set savings goals, and build financial literacy—one task at a time.
How Pulse Cash Works
Three simple steps from chores to cash
Complete Chores
Kids complete their assigned tasks and earn points for each one.
Convert to Cash
When they have enough points, convert to real dollars at your set rate.
Save or Spend
Money goes to their balance where they can save toward goals or request withdrawal.
Savings Goals That Motivate
Kids can set up to 3 savings goals—things they actually want to save for. Watching their progress bar fill up teaches delayed gratification and goal-setting.

Common Questions
Is real money actually transferred?
Pulse Cash tracks virtual dollars. When kids request a withdrawal, you as the parent decide how to fulfill it—cash, Venmo, piggy bank, etc. The app tracks balances; you handle the actual transfer.
Can I adjust the conversion rate?
Yes! You set the rate. 100 points = $1 is the default, but you can make it easier (50 points = $1) or harder (200 points = $1) based on your family's preferences.
What happens to unused cash balance?
Cash balances stay in the app until used. Kids can save toward goals or request withdrawals. There's no expiration on earned cash.
Can I give bonuses?
Yes! Parents can add bonus cash directly to a child's balance for special occasions, extra effort, or any reason you choose.
