How it works
Savora sits between your pocket-money routine and your child’s first real money habits.
Pick the chores, put a rand value on them and choose when pocket money lands. Two minutes to set up, easy to change as your kids grow.
Short game-style lessons teach earning, budgeting and saving — no lectures, no worksheets. Finished chores and lessons pay out Savora Coins on the spot.
Kids point their coins at goals they actually want and watch the progress bar close in. You approve every payout, so the lesson sticks.
What kids learn
45 bite-size lessons across three age tiers, aligned to international financial-literacy standards. Each child sees only their own tier — never babyish, never over their head.

Features
Playful where it should be, serious where it counts.
Bite-size quests cover earning, spending, saving and giving — written in plain language for South African kids, from tuck-shop maths to a first bank card.
Dishes, homework, walking the dog — attach a coin value to real responsibilities. Kids tick them off, you approve with one tap, coins land instantly.
A picture of the prize and a bar that fills up beats any lecture. Kids learn to wait, plan and get there — rand by rand.
Each guardian sees the child’s chores, quests and progress — never each other’s wallets or contributions. Privacy by design, enforced in the database itself.
FAQ
Nothing during beta. Every feature is free while we build alongside our first families. When paid plans arrive, beta families will hear first and get founding-member pricing.
No. Savora Coins are pocket-money points that you approve and pay out however your family already does — cash, EFT or bank app. No bank account, card or ID is needed, which also means there is nothing financial to lose.
Ages 8 to 18. The curriculum runs in three tiers — Foundations (8–10), Building Skills (11–13) and Independence (14–18) — and each child only sees lessons for their own age, from tuck-shop maths up to credit, investing and first paycheques.
Both guardians see the child’s chores, lessons and goals — and never each other’s wallets, contributions or personal details. That wall is enforced in the database itself, not just hidden in the app.
We collect the minimum: a first name, an age and progress in the app. No surnames, no school, no location, no ads, and we never sell data. Kids sign in with a PIN under your account.
