Senior React Developer
About the Company
SideKick Card offers an easier way for parents to fund, monitor, and manage how their child spends money while studying abroad. With the SideKick Card, parents are able to effectively manage both funding and monitoring when it comes to their child’s spending, by allocating the funds to specific categories to guarantee that they are being spent properly.
Whether they want to exercise complete control of their child’s spending, monitor how they are using their funds, or lock the card, there is no shortage of options. SideKick Card is a useful tool that parents can use to teach their children how to budget.
SideKick Card was developed in hopes of taking the burden of managing finances for students from school employees and agents/student recruiters.
