Allowance

Getting your allowance 

Once your weekly allowance is stabilized, your primary interaction with this feature will be to withdraw (get) your allowance from your cash plan's checking account each week on the weekday you have chosen.

In the below example, you are entering how you got your allowance of $250 on Thursday, 8/7/2025.

Click on the Get button

Start by clicking on the Get button in the Allowance slider to open the Get allowance window.

In the Get allowance window:

  1. The current balance in your Allowance ledger is shown here.
  2. Select a date for when you withdrew your allowance (if you got your allowance over more than one day, use the scheduled get date)
  3. The amount scheduled to be withdrawn is shown here.
