    @Smart Family Money You mentioned that you set up both a Capital One and Step acct for your daughter. Can you link those accounts and see both balances in one app? While I understand there are some differences between the two, it feels a little redundant so I'm curious how you and your kids use each account and decided on the strategy where money is deposited and spent from.

    I'm so late to this video but I'm trying to find a no fee debit card and the closest I have found was the step app I love how it tracks credit scores, but I'm just confused is it a credit card or a debit card.

      If you are only choosing one, Capital One Money is the way I would go. It's been great for my kids (13 and 14 now). We use Zelle with it to make transfers easier too.

    Ok so literally one of these was actually no fee when we ask for no fee what we want is no subscriptions for debit card and that card isn’t even a debit card it’s classified as a credit card because you can see your balance after every transaction cash app is a fee less debit card that is the google reason it’s not a debit card and You can use step past thirteen and adults can use it too that’s why there’s no strict parental control because you can remove all sponsors which are your friends or family and if my it’s also a financial freedom thing would you want your employer regulating what you do with you money I wouldn’t and remember credit cards mean easy debt by spending money you will have and debit cards mean safety by spending money you do have

    • @SmartFamilyMoney
      @SmartFamilyMoney  Před 2 lety +1

      Do you want to deposit cash or checks? And for what age? If you want to deposit checks, Cap One Money is great (but they don't have cash depositing, BUT it just came to Cap One 360, so it might be coming soon). Chase HS Checking and Wells Fargo Clear Access are both for 13+ and do allow cash deposits but they have other restrictions. Copper is a teen debit card with no monthly fee and it allows cash deposits but there is a fee for the cash deposits.
