I think Modak is a very good financial app for children. It has daily scratch-offs for MBX along with challenges. MBX is an in-game currency. You can exchange 100 MBX for $1, which is AWESOME if you... See more

Even in unpleasant situations.....

This is the 2nd time now unfortunately that our sons card has been compromised or stolen. After reaching out the representatives not only always help me calm myself some but ensure that we will get to the bottom of it all so they can fix it. I am grateful for a team that recognizes others situations, how scary & frustrating it can be but they truly care as well. I was given step my step instructions on what to do and how to file the dispute. Thank you for trusting me but for empathizing with me during a very stressful situation that no one ever wants to be in. Kudos to you all. Thanks again.

So far I love it

So far I love it. My daughter does her chores more and if they are not done properly I can deny the payment of it . It's reaching her to take her time to make sure her chores are done properly. Just a little annoyed with not getting her actual card and now being told I have to wait another month to request a new card for her. But she does use her virtual card on her Google wallet so it works the same way.

Disappointed - errors with adding funds

As a first time user of this app, I am frustrated with not being able to add money from my bank to my Modak wallet. Nor am I able to link a debit card to set up any sort of transactions to fund either my kids accounts or my wallet. The app keeps giving me errors and also automatically closing. I restarted my phone and also deleted and reinstalled the app. After reaching out to customer service I found out they are experiencing issues with this functionality and don’t know when it will be resolved. I was told to use another form to add funds but they all cost money to do so and also don’t work.
