FamZoo vs. Greenlight: Which is worth the monthly fee?
Greenlight gives parents more control, but FamZoo lets you load cash to your account.
Our Verdict
FamZoo and Greenlight have distinct features that help kids develop good money habits, landing them a spot on our best debit cards for kids list. But Greenlight edges out the competition with its aesthetically pleasing platform and strong parental controls. Plus you can upgrade to Greenlight Max for $9.98 a month to let your kids become little investors, though parents can invest in a handful of ETFs with the Greenlight Core plan. While FamZoo is unique because it allows you to deposit cash to your account at participating retailers, it’ll cost you about $4.95 per transaction.More guides on Finder
