3. Add your bills
Students use their income to pay bills, such as rent for their desk, to practice budgeting in a safe space
Click “Bills” at the top of the page.
Select “Add Suggested Bills” to automatically apply our recommendations
We recommend charging a total of $100 in bills monthly and recommend $80 for rent and $20 for utilities.
Select “Add Bill” to include any custom bills.
Teachers have gotten really creative with these such as charging an AC bill in the summer and heating bills in the winter.
We recommend sending bills on the first of every month. See Pro-Tip below to learn about Auto-Pay.
Pro Tip: Turn on Auto Expense to automatically send bills to your students.
Click Edit Class > Auto Expense check box > Choose weekly (on Fridays), biweekly (first and third Friday of every month), or monthly (first Friday of the month).
4. Add your store items
Students learn to budget, set goals, and use their savings to purchase rewards from the classroom store.
Click “Store” at the top of the page > then “All Items”
Select “Add Suggested Items” to automatically apply our recommendations.
The majority of our suggested items are free for teachers!
Select “Add Item” to include any custom items.
Select one of our preset images or upload your own.
We recommend adding a range of items anywhere between $5-$100. A $5 item might be a smaller item such as a piece of candy, a medium $50 item may be sitting at the teacher’s desk, and a larger $100 item may be a homework pass.
Return here to close the class store and edit store items, or click “Store Transactions” to view student purchases.
Pro Tip: Create your store list with your class to build excitement and engage students!
5. Add your jobs
Classroom jobs allow students to take ownership of class routines and make your life easier!
Click “Jobs” at the top of the page.
Select “Add Suggested Jobs” to get started with our recommended jobs.
Select “Add Job” to add any custom jobs.
We recommend students earn a total of $100 per month to balance their bills and so they are incentivized to earn bonuses. Consider how often you are paying your students. If you plan to pay them weekly set salaries between $20-30, biweekly $40-60, or monthly $90-110.
Optional: Add “Student” Job
Pay all students a “Student” salary if you do not have classroom jobs for everyone so that all students have a source of income.
Once you’ve added your students, make sure to hire ALL students to the student job so they receive this paycheck.
Turn on autopay to automatically send paychecks to your students.
Click Edit Class > Auto Pay check box > Choose weekly (on Fridays), biweekly (first and third Friday of every month), or monthly (first Friday of the month).
Return here to hire students, view applications, and edit your jobs.
Pro Tip: Align job responsibilities with your classroom routines to simplify classroom management.
