Greenlight provides a debit card and mobile app designed to teach children financial skills while giving parents practical tools for money management. Founded in 2014 and based in Atlanta, the platform serves over 6 million parents and kids. The debit card works alongside the app to help young people learn earning, saving, spending, and investing habits with parental guidance at each step.
The app enables parents to automate allowance, assign chores, set flexible spend controls, and invest for the family's future together. A built-in safety hub includes location sharing, SOS alerts, crash detection with 911 dispatch integration, and driving analytics - features particularly relevant for families with teenagers.
Beyond its core product, Greenlight provides free educational resources for teachers across the country and engages in volunteer work with underserved families in Atlanta. The company's stated mission is to empower parents to raise financially-smart children and "shine a light on the world of money for families."
