GoHenry is a UK-based fintech company created by parents to pioneer financial education for kids and teens.

Together, Acorns, Pixpay, and GoHenry have over 6 million members across 5 countries.

GoHenry offers a debit card and app for kids and teens and companion apps for the family; with in-app tools for sending money, automating allowances, managing chores, setting savings goals, giving to charity, and in-app financial education lessons where kids can watch videos, take quizzes, and earn points and badges.
