Their debit card has too many fees. Many online purchases get hit with high foreign transaction fees. Previous stock provider, StockPile was a pain, and then added unreasonable fees. Based on that it is hard to trust BusyKid on the new investment provider. I would like a simple way to pay a selected interest rate on savings balance. Busy kid could offer a low base rate, but parents could supplement. They have a savings match feature but that only makes sense if you lock savings. I would prefer my kids have more freedom to learn about time value of money and investing. The branding is not good for older kids. Sure you have a debit card, but it is embarrassing to use in front of peers.It does work. The app is fairly good. It was pretty easy to set up. But given the upfront fees, it seems like they should provide a card without all the excessive transaction fees.
