User Reviews

Users praise Acorns Early for teaching kids money management and the kid card/allowance features, but many reviews cite recurring problems: slow or unhelpful customer support, delays in funding transfers, activation and login issues, privacy concerns over data requests, and various app glitches. The strongest recurring negatives are support responsiveness, funding timelines, and access/verification hurdles, which contrast with the app's educational value and early finance focus.

I have had an Acorns account for many years. Now that my oldest child is 6, I was looking forward to using Acorns Early for financial responsibility and a card for outings. I cannot log into the app. I've tried everything I can think of and nothing works. It gives me error messages at every turn. My child's account is verified in the Acorns app. I go into Acorns Early and use my login credentials, and I get an error message. I then try to reset my password and never get an email. At this point, I don't know what else to do.
