“My Copper account is teaching me a lot”

My Copper account is teaching me a lot about how banking works. I love that I can use my debit card or Apple Pay on my own. My Mom likes that she can transfer money quickly to me without worrying about using cash.

“It was easy to sign up and connect his account to mine.”

I had tried Greenlight before finding out about Copper. The fees on Greenlight were higher and the process just wasn’t as cut and dry as it needed to be. When I discovered Copper, my teenage son and I sat down together and downloaded the app. It was easy to sign up and connect his account to mine. The process of adding money to my wallet and then sending it to his account is very simple and streamlined. I'm able to view my son’s balance and activity without searching for it.

“Thanks for giving my teen the chance to see what it’s like to manage his finances”

My son had never been able to save money (and still can’t), but with the savings account option he at least tries to! And Copper teaches him how. Thanks for giving my teen the chance to see what it's like to manage his finances, and providing an app and process that doesn't make me so frustrated I want to pull my hair out! :)
