A transaction is a single recorded change to a child’s balance. Apply a rule, make a one-off adjustment, and Kredz writes it to the family’s history. The balance you see is always the sum of these records.

​
Recording a transaction

1

Choose a child

Open the child from the dashboard.
2

Apply a rule or adjust

Tap one of your rules, or record a one-off adjustment for something that doesn’t have a rule yet.
3

Confirm

The transaction is added and the balance updates immediately on every device.

​
One-off adjustments

Not everything fits a rule. An adjustment lets you add or remove credits for a single situation without creating a permanent rule — handy for a bonus, a correction, or a special occasion.

​
The history is append-only

Kredz keeps a permanent, append-only record. This is what makes a balance trustworthy.
Transactions are never edited or deleted. If something was recorded by mistake, you don’t erase it — you record a correcting adjustment in the opposite direction. The original entry and the correction both stay in the history, so the math is always transparent.

​
Fixing a mistake

1

Find the entry

Open the child’s history and locate the transaction.
2

Record a correction

Add an adjustment that cancels it out (for example, a +10 to undo an accidental −10).
3

Done

The balance is back where it should be, and the history shows what happened.

​
Who can record

  • Admins and caregivers can record transactions for any child in the family.
  • Children cannot record anything — their view is read-only.
