What is Mydoh?
Mydoh is a money management app designed to help their kids learn money management skills while their parents have oversight. It’s simple, safe and secure.

Mydoh will also be offering exclusive benefits to OBA members who sign up to Mydoh, as well as access to financial education resources that can help families and young people make informed decisions about managing their money.

About Mydoh
Since 2019, Mydoh has been committed to helping parents raise money-smart kids. Mydoh began with the shared belief that money management isn’t something you are taught, as much as something you learn through experience – and that experience should start early. Kids learn money basics through play, earn their own money through tasks, and spend it wisely using their Mydoh Smart Card. Parents can see their kids’ spending activity and control how involved they want to be. Mydoh has championed these beliefs since its inception and with it, has been able to help over 80,000 families build a more solid financial foundation for the next generation. Mydoh has also been recognized as an inspiring place to work, being recently ranked 11th overall in the Top 50 Inspiring Workplaces in North America for 2022. Learn more at mydoh.ca.
