If you would like to manually manage when your kids receive money via Boosts rather than receiving a regular allowance, you have the ability to switch off allowance.
To do this:
Tap Menu in the top right corner of the family dashboard
Tap Manage Account
Tap on the name of the child who's allowance you wish to switch off
Tap Allowance settings
In the field with the allowance frequency (weekly/fortnightly/monthly), tap the drop down and select Allowance not set
Once changed, make sure to tap Save in the top right
Alternatively, you can also do this by following the steps below:
Go to your child's dashboard by tapping on their tile on the family dashboard
Tap on the Menu icon in the top right
Tap on your [Child's name] Settings
Tap on Allowance settings
In the field with the allowance frequency (weekly/fortnightly/monthly), tap the drop down and select Allowance not set
Once changed, make sure to tap Save in the top right
This will remove your child's allowance, allowing you to manage this manually through 'Boosts'.
Alternatively, if you’d prefer to only temporarily stop your child’s allowance you can also pause the allowance instead. For more information on this, check out our guide here.
