The story

Till Financial launched as a kids' and family banking platform designed to give children spending control while enabling parental oversight — competing in a crowded space alongside Greenlight and others. The platform leaned into money-movement infrastructure via Astra to power instant account funding and disbursements. The company's current status and any subsequent pivots are not fully evidenced in available public sources.
