Simple for the Whole Family

From chores to screen time.

Barnacle Bucks makes it easy to turn everyday responsibilities into rewards. Here's how your family gets started.

01

Get Started

Set up your family.

Create your parent account and add individual profiles for your children. Each child gets their own chores, screen-time balance, and PIN access.

02

Choose Chores

Decide what earns rewards.

Choose from the built-in chore library or create custom chores. Assign tasks to each child, select repeat schedules, and set the minutes they can earn.

Get to Work

Kids complete their chores.

Children open their dashboard to see their assigned tasks. Once they've completed a chore, they submit it for approval, including a photo when required.

04

Parent Approval

Review their hard work.

Parents review submitted chores, check any required photos, and approve or reject the work. Approved chores earn screen-time minutes.
