Documentation Points and rewards

Rewards

ParentsChildreniPhoneAndroid

Parents decide what points buy; children save up, pick a goal and ask. Nothing is taken until a parent says yes.

Rewards, as Mia sees them
Points → Rewards: the price, how far she is, “I want it!”, and 🎯 for a goal

For children: asking for a reward

On Points → Rewards every reward shows its price in ⭐, and a bar of how close you are.

  1. Enough points? Tap I want it! — it says "Asked — waiting for a parent". Not enough yet? The button says how many more: "10 ⭐ more".
  2. A parent says yes (Approve) or no (Say no). On yes, the points are taken from "to spend".
  3. Changed your mind? Cancel the request while it's waiting.

A goal 🎯

Tap 🎯 on a reward to make it your goal. It shows on My day, with how far you are — "20 of 50 ⭐" — and "You have enough — you can ask for it! 🎉" when you get there.

Reward ideas from the children

A child can Suggest a reward — "Pizza night" — and say what they think it's worth. Parents see it under Reward ideas, then Approve it (setting the real price) or Decline it.

For parents: the requests

Requests waiting for a parent
Points → Rewards: what the children asked for, with Approve and Say no

Requests wait at the top of Points → Rewards (the number shows on the tab: "Rewards (1)"). Approve takes the points; Say no leaves them where they were.

Making rewards

Points → Rewards → Add or change rewards and goals, then + → New reward:

A new reward
A name, a price, a surprise (for a while or a few times) and a picture
FieldWhat it does
Name"Cinema", "30 minutes of tablet", "Pizza night".
Price5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 ⭐ or any other number.
SurpriseAlways, Today only, Until tomorrow or A week — and No limit, Only once, 2 or 3 times. Good for a one-off treat.
PictureSo children find it at a glance.
Visible to the childrenHide a reward without deleting it.

Tap a reward to change it; deleting one keeps the past requests in the history.

Family goals

A goal for everyone together — "Aquapark", 500 ⭐. Everything the family earns after it's created counts, and nothing is taken from anyone's points. Make one with + → New goal: a name and how many points in all. When it's reached, mark it Achieved.

Questions

What if two children want the same reward? Each asks for their own; a reward with "Only once" goes to the first one approved.

Can a reward cost real money? Points are only points. If a reward is pocket money, give it in Pocket money when you approve.
