What it’s for

Three pools, one quiet app.

Most family money moments fall into one of three shapes. deteora handles each as the same simple object — a pool.

Class tax

Collect for the class without the awkward DMs.

Field trips, end-of-year gifts, the teacher's coffee fund. Set the target, share the link, watch it fill.

Group gift

Group gifts that stay a secret until the reveal.

Pool anonymously, decide together, and surprise the recipient when it lands. No spoilers in the thread.

See how it works
Roadtrip

Split the roadtrip without the math at every gas pump.

Drop receipts in the pool, deteora settles up. Everyone sees what's spent, what's owed, what's left.

See how it works
How it works

From idea to settled, in four taps.

01

Open a pool.

Name it, set a target, pick a deadline. Or skip all three — pools work without rules too.

02

Invite the group.

A link is enough. Parents join from any phone, no account dance, no QR codes at the school gate.

03

Everyone chips in.

Apple Pay, Google Pay, card. Contributors stay private until you decide otherwise.

04

Spend or send.

Move the pool to whoever needs it — the teacher, the gift card, the trip captain. One tap.

The pool

One object,
infinite uses.

Every pool shows the same three things — what’s gathered, who’s in, what’s next. The simplicity is the feature.

  • Anonymous contributions, optional reveal
  • No bank-account info to receive
  • Receipts auto-attach to roadtrip pools
  • Auto-nudges for class-tax deadlines

Trust

Money on the line means trust on the line.

We built deteora as if every parent in the group will read the privacy policy. (Some of them will.)

Bank-grade encryption.
All money movement runs on regulated rails. We never see your card number.
Private by default.
Contributors are anonymous until reveal. Pool owners can keep details from spreading further.
No data resale.
We're paid by Pro subscriptions, not by selling your parenting habits. Always.
Audited receipts.
Every pool keeps a tamper-evident ledger. Export to CSV whenever you want.

FAQ

The plain answers.

No. Anyone with the link can chip in using Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a card. Only the pool's organizer needs an account.

Start with one pool.
The rest will follow.

Free to download. Free to use. Free for the cousin who’ll definitely forget to pay you back.
