Chores that don't feel like a fight.
Award points for everyday tasks and kindness — each point drops a marble into a shared family jar. When it's full, your family celebrates with a reward you earned together.
Free to use — no card, no subscription. Set up your family in a couple of minutes.
Notice effort
A quick tap to award points for chores, kindness, and effort — tidying up without being asked, helping a sibling, trying something hard. The chime lets your child know you noticed.
Earn it together
Every point drops a marble into the shared jar. Your family chooses the reward together — a park outing, movie night, camp in the lounge. Something everyone's excited about.
Remember the wins
Snap a photo of the proud grin after making the bed, the jar nearly full. Tag who was there and watch your family's story grow — not just a chore chart, but a family journal.

When it's full, it's time to celebrate the reward everyone's been working towards.
PointPals is research-backed, not gimmicky. The idea is simple: children contribute more when they can see their effort add up — and when they feel connected to the outcome. External rewards scaffold habits, but the goal is always for the habit to stick, not the reward to last forever. Read the research →
PointPals is free for every family. Create your family, add your kids, and start filling the jar together — no card, no subscription.
