Every kid gets a first lesson about money.
We think it should be the right one.

Faretto turns chores, gifts, and savings into a child's first real experience with sound money — small sats becoming a strong foundation. That's the idea behind the name: faretto, a small spotlight.

Small light. Strong money. ⚡

Why parents choose Faretto

You don't have to be a Bitcoiner to raise one

Faretto makes it easy to teach, guide, and stack alongside your kids — so their money and their money skills grow into confidence they carry for life.

The paradigm shift

Dollars melt. Sats stack.

Saving in a currency that loses value quietly teaches kids to spend. A fixed-supply money teaches them to build.

Saving in depreciating dollars versus stacking Bitcoin sats
Saved in dollarsThe same allowance buys less every year, so the lesson becomes “spend it before it shrinks.”
Stacked in satsA scarce money rewards patience, so the lesson becomes “earn, save, and let it grow.”
How it works

Earn. Save. Spend. Repeat.

Kids learn money by living the loop — earning sats, watching them grow, and spending with intention.

Earn

Allowance & chores, paid in sats

Set up chores in the Faretto app, choose a sats payout, and tick them off when they're done. Kids learn that money is earned — and that small amounts compound.

Parents set the sats payout per chore in the app — Faretto handles the Lightning transfer instantly and keeps a running log, so kids see exactly what they earned and when.

Save

Savings goals that build a habit

Kids set their own goals with target dates and optional autosave. Watching a sats balance climb toward a goal turns saving into a game they want to win.

Goals can target real things — a bike, a console, a gift for a friend — and parents can add a matching contribution to reward consistent saving, just like a 401(k) match for kids.

Stack

Accumulate real Bitcoin for their future

Give your kids a head start by stacking sats into a custodial wallet that's truly theirs. Unlike a spending-only card, Faretto is built around long-term accumulation — sovereignty, not just budgeting.

Faretto parental controls: spend alerts, card lock, spend limits and full visibility
Control

Parental controls & peace of mind

Real-time notifications when your kids spend, custom spending limits, and one-tap card locking. You stay in control while they learn — guardrails that loosen as they grow.

Set daily and per-transaction limits, approve new merchants, and get a weekly digest by email — oversight that feels like coaching, not surveillance.

Learn

Bitcoin literacy they'll actually love

Bite-sized Money Missions teach what money is, why scarcity matters, how Lightning works, and how to self-custody — leveled by age, earned through play.

Each Money Mission is a 3–5 minute lesson — sound money, inflation, Lightning, scam awareness, and self-custody basics — with quizzes that unlock XP and bonus sats.

Gift

Giftlinks & family stacking

Make birthdays and holidays easier — invite relatives to gift sats straight to your kid's wallet with a simple link. Every gift becomes a lesson in long-term value.

Relatives send a Giftlink with a personal message — no wallet setup on their end — and the sats land straight in your kid's Faretto balance, ready to spend, save, or stack.

Questions, answered

Faretto is Italian for a small spotlight. Every kid gets a first lesson about money — we think it should be the right one. Faretto turns chores, gifts, and savings into a child's first real experience with sound money: small sats becoming a strong foundation. Small light. Strong money.

Faretto is built for kids ages 6–17, with three guided tiers — Awakening (6–10), Understanding (11–14), and Mastery (15–17). The experience grows in capability and responsibility as your child does. You decide when they're ready to move up.

The Faretto Lightning card works anywhere Visa® is accepted — online, in stores, and at ATMs — while settling on Bitcoin's Lightning Network behind the scenes for instant, low-cost transfers between Faretto users.

Yes. Faretto is designed around real ownership, not a closed points system. Younger kids start in a parent-controlled custodial wallet; as they progress, they learn self-custody in a safe sandbox before graduating to securing real keys — with parental guardrails you control the whole way.

Bitcoin's price is volatile, and we never hide that — teaching kids about volatility and a long time horizon is part of the curriculum. Most early activity is small, chore-earned amounts. The goal is literacy and sound-money habits, not speculation, and parents set every limit.

Those tools teach kids to budget dollars. Faretto teaches kids to earn, save, and accumulate Bitcoin — real peer-to-peer money with a fixed supply — and to eventually self-custody it. Same friendly guardrails parents expect, aimed at the financial system your kids will actually inherit.

Every plan includes the app, Lightning card(s), allowance & chores, Money Missions, and full parental controls. Sovereign adds self-custody education, hardware wallet integration, multisig lessons, and real BTC accumulation features. Cancel anytime.
