Sprout
Earn. Save. Grow.
Our story

Teaching kids that money is grown, not given.

Sprout started with a simple problem: we couldn't find a tool to manage chores, earnings, and savings for our four kids, so we built one ourselves.

Noán Barker, founder of Sprout

Meet the founder

Sprout was founded by Noán Barker, a father of four who wanted a simpler way to manage chores, pocket money and savings with his own children. After struggling with repeated reminders, unclear balances and disconnected systems, he created Sprout to give families one practical place to manage it all.

Before founding Sprout, Noán worked as a CFO in the cybersecurity industry, where careful financial management, privacy and accountability were essential. Those principles now shape Sprout: a simple, parent-controlled app that helps children understand the connection between effort, earning and saving.

Our mission

For Kids: To give every child a hands-on, encouraging encounter with money. Earning it through real effort, saving it with patience, and watching it grow into something they're proud of.

For Parents: Make it effortless and fun whilst guiding their kids.

What we believe

Money

Money is earned

Effort and reward belong together. Every reward in Sprout traces back to a real chore, done and approved.

Multiple children

Parents lead

Sprout is a tool for your family's values, not a replacement for them. You set the chores, the amounts, and approve every reward.

Security

Privacy first

We will never sell family data. Kids' information stays your family's business.
