BusyKid plans, side by side

Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

Plan	Price	Features listed	Step up from the tier below

Annual Subscription	$48/year	6	+$44/year

What each tier adds

The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

Monthly Subscription

$4/month

The entry tier. It covers up to 5 visa prepaid cards, chore tracking and automatic allowance payments, stock and etf investing with no commissions, savings and donation tracking, busypay qr code gift feature, parental controls and real-time notifications.

Annual Subscription

Nothing on the record separates this tier from Monthly Subscription on features. Check the vendor's page for the limits it lifts.

Before you pay for BusyKid

Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.

What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 2 tiers between $4/month and $48/year, with the jump not itemised on the record. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare BusyKid against the tools that do have one before committing.

BusyKid runs on ios, android, web, and is published by BusyKid Inc. of El Dorado Hills, CA. The full record is on the BusyKid review, and the rest of the category is under best parenting tools.
