Quick Answers
Quick answers to common questions about how Junga and Greenlight differ.
I already have an account with Greenlight. Can I use Junga?
Yes. While the two platforms share some similarities in regards to the ability to track completion of tasks (chores in Greenlight), Junga and Greenlight serve different purposes.
Greenlight is a financial education app that provides a platform for parents to manage their children's allowances, chores, and spending.
Junga is a social-emotional learning (SEL) platform designed to connect and organize the people who support a child's development across all areas of their life. Junga can complement the use of Greenlight by providing a space for families to share their efforts in supporting their child's emotional development.
I like the allowance feature in Greenlight. How does Junga handle cash rewards?
Junga's approach to cash rewards is simple: determine a points-to-cash conversion rate that makes sense for your family, then create rewards that are redeemable for cash payouts. Once redeemed, your Junga can receive their payout in physical cash, via bank transfer from your account to theirs, or through popular cash apps such as Venmo or Paypal.
Junga does not handle automated direct deposits at this time.
