PegboardSign in
The family noticeboard, priced

Pocket money and chores, settled honestly.

Parents post jobs with a price. Kids claim them, show they are done, and you sign them off, so nobody has to ask twice.

No money moves through Pegboard. It keeps the running total and logs the day you pay it.

Three taps, start to paid.

  1. 1They claim it

    Jobs sit on the board with a price. Whoever wants it takes it, and it is theirs until it is done or given back.

  2. 2You sign it off

    It arrives in one queue with a photo if you asked for one. Approve it, part-approve it, or send it back with a reason.

  3. 3It's counted

    The amount goes on the running total the moment you approve it. Nothing can quietly edit what is already there.

One job, not ten tiny ones.

“Clean the bedroom” is one job with a list inside it. Tick the steps off as you go, and the card on the board says how far along it is.

Clean the bedroom
2 of 3 steps
  • Make the bed
  • Clothes in the basket
  • Hoover the floor
What good looks like
What they tick off
  • Add a photo of what good looks like, once. Every child who ever does the job sees it.
  • They photograph each step they tick, so “it’s done” is something you can look at.
  • Post another like it when it comes round again, list and all.

Nobody has to guess what “properly” meant.

Put it on the fridge tablet.

A four-digit PIN lets a kid claim a job without signing anyone out.

Nobody gets nagged

They pick. That's the whole difference.

Parents count too

Your jobs earn, and appear on the board.

Nothing is sold

No adverts, no tracking, no data broker.

Your children's details stay yours.

How we handle children's data

Put it on the home screen.

No app store, no download. It opens full screen with its own icon, and works on the phone the kids already use.

On a laptop
  1. Open getpegboard.co.uk in Chrome or Edge.
  2. Look for the install icon at the right-hand end of the address bar. It looks like a screen with a downward arrow.
  3. Click it, then “Install”.
  4. It gets its own window and its own icon, like a normal program.
On a different device?
On an iPhone or iPad
  1. Open getpegboard.co.uk in Safari. It has to be Safari, not Chrome.
  2. Tap the share button: the square with an arrow coming out of it.
  3. Scroll down and tap “Add to Home Screen”.
  4. Tap “Add”. It's now an icon like any other app.
On an Android phone
  1. Open getpegboard.co.uk in Chrome.
  2. Tap the three dots in the top corner.
  3. Tap “Install app”, or “Add to Home screen”.
  4. Confirm. It opens full screen, without the browser bar.
