A little economy for your house.

Chores are where it starts. Kids earn at their own level, save for things they picked, and fill a family jar together. You approve from your phone, and Pomjar keeps every pom point and promise straight.

Pom points are theirs. Pom-poms are everyone's.

When you approve a chore, it counts twice: pom points go into the kid's own bank, and the family jar fills by the same amount. The jar fills on top of their reward, never out of it.

Younger kids earn stars instead of pom points. Every star they earn, including spot awards, goes in the jar too.

For the kids

Their own list at their own level, something to save for, and a say in how they spend it.

Earn. Chores that fit the day and the kid.

  • Morning, afternoon, and evening. Chores sit in their part of the day, in your order. One-off to-dos stay until they're done.
  • A mode for every age. A routine card for the littlest, instant stars, or pom points. Change it as they grow.
  • Help off the list counts. Give a spot award for the table nobody asked them to clear.
  • Read aloud for pre-readers. A speaker button reads each chore and its reward, if you turn it on.
  • Milestones worth a cheer. Every ten stars gets its own celebration.

Save. Every kid who earns gets a bank.

  • Every pom point, accounted for. Each kid sees their balance and their latest awards, prizes, and adjustments.
  • A savings bonus you set. Through your assistant, give extra as kids earn, like ten for every fifty pom points.
  • Wishes become prizes. Kids wish for things in your shop. You price it, send it to a shared pot, or say no.
  • Their next reward, front and center. Kids heart the prize they want most, and the tablet shows how close they are.

Spend. Prizes you invent, on your terms.

  • Your prizes, your prices. Add a photo, price it in pom points or stars, and choose which kids see it.
  • Prizes wait for you. Prize requests sit in your inbox, and a prize costs nothing until you approve.
  • Shared pots for the big stuff. Siblings chip in their own pom points toward one prize. Unlike the jar, a pot spends what they put in.
  • Fair by design. A one-time prize is once per kid, so a sibling's claim never uses up yours.

Play. Pom Arcade keeps points moving.

  • Simple family games. For ages three and up, and most star your own family.
  • You set the limits. Price each game, cap plays per day, and choose when Pom Arcade is open.
  • Little ones play free. Kids in star or routine mode play their games without spending anything.
  • No ads, no in-app purchases, no strangers. Best scores stay private, and there are no leaderboards.

For the whole family

One goal everyone fills, one screen on the counter, and a deck of cards with every kid in it.

Share. One jar for the whole family.

  • Like the classroom pom-pom jar. Every rewarded chore fills the family jar by the same amount, and the kid keeps their full reward.
  • Giving is their choice. A kid can ask your assistant to give some of their pom points to the jar.
  • It never goes down. Spending pom points or a consequence never takes pom-poms out.
  • A goal with a photo. Pizza night, a zoo trip, or the thing they've begged for. When you hand it over, you can start a fresh jar.
  • No leaderboards or rankings. The jar is the score the family fills together.

The tablet. A photo frame that runs the chores.

  • No screen to buy. Use a tablet you already own, and add Pomjar to its home screen.
  • A photo frame between chores. When nobody's tapping, it shows your family photo, the clock, and the jar.
  • Faces, not usernames. Kids tap their own photo and enter their PIN.
  • A lock only grown-ups open. A three-second hold and a parent PIN keep little fingers out of the grown-up controls.

Family cards. A collectible card for every kid.

  • Foil cards with their faces. Each kid gets a card with their photo, name, and level.
  • Flip it over. The back shows their total, their level, and their age.
  • Deal everyone in. Tap the deck on the tablet or your phone, and every kid shows up.

For parents

Less to remember and nothing to chase. You decide the rules once, and Pomjar keeps the books.

Decisions. Run it all from your phone.

  • One inbox for every decision. Finished chores, prize requests, and wishes wait in one pile. Swipe or tap each one, then send.
  • Both parents, equal footing. Invite the other caregiver by email. Either of you can approve from your own phone.
  • Consequences that cost pom points. Take pom points off instead of threatening a timeout. A consequence stops at zero, and the jar is never touched.
  • Every pom point has a history. See what was awarded, spent, or taken back, by whom, and when.
  • Your family's clock. The day rolls over at your midnight, wherever you live.

Profiles. What works for each kid, in one place.

  • Notes only grown-ups see. Jot down what's working, what they're into, and what to try next. Kids never see your notes.
  • What works right now. A quick card for each kid with their current obsessions and the approach that's working this month.
  • You stay in charge of it. Every change has a history, and you can rewrite any section.

Real money. Birthday cash, finally tracked.

  • A record of the money you hold. Log birthday money, tooth-fairy money, and what they spend it on.
  • The cash stays with you. Pomjar never holds or moves money. There's no debit card and no account to open.
  • To the cent. Every entry is dated and can carry a note, so "you owe me from my birthday" finally has an answer.

Your agent. Bring the assistant you already use.

  • Connect with one approval. Assistants that sign in ask, and you say yes on Pomjar's own screen. There's no key to copy.
  • Run the house by asking. Add a chore, price a wish, approve a pile of check-offs, or hand out pom points.
  • Set up by describing your house. It drafts one plan of kids and chores, and nothing changes until it's applied.
  • You set the limits. Keep it read-only, see every change it makes, and disconnect it anytime. It can't reach PINs, billing, or kid sign-ins.
  • Everything works without it. The board, approvals, prizes, and jar don't need AI.

Add "feed the fish" to Leo's mornings, 2 pom points.

Done. Feed the fish is on Leo's morning list, worth 2 pom points.

And give Ivy a star for helping with the baby.

Ivy got a spot award: 1 star, for helping with the baby.

Chores by age. A starting list for every kid.

Setup suggests chores and a mode for each age from 3 to 12. Family chores earn nothing, because some jobs are part of living together. From age 4, bonus jobs earn stars or pom points. You can change any of it.
