THE SITE: https://SineCash.fm7.net

SineCash is made to be a family IOU tracker. The money in SineCash isn't real, removing the risk of children spending their money on unapproved purchases and also removing the hastle of setting up a bank account for your children.

SETTING UP:
To set up a SineCash family, just sign up and then click 'parent'. This will take you to a page where you can enter a family name and then press 'create family'. The site will then generate a random four letter code, which will allow children and other adults to join the family. To join as a child, sign up and then click 'child'. Then, enter the family code provided by your parent and you will be logged in. To add another parent, sign up, click parent, and then type the family code into the field down by the bottom. click the join button. Note: you can always delete family members or lock you family, see Family Page section fro more info.

SENDING:
To send cash, navigate to the send page via the button on the home page. Here, there are four simple steps to send cash.

1. select the person you'd like to send cash to.
2. type in the amount of money, in dollars, that you'd like to send. note that if you don't have enough money, the transaction won't go through
3. add a note to your transaction, (ie. 'mowing the lawn' or 'cleaning your room').
4. Press the done button, confirm your transaction, and your money will send!

REQUESTING:
Requesting is very similar to sending. To request cash, navigate to the request page via the button on the home page. Here, there are four simple steps to request cash. NOTE: As a parent, a child won't have to approve your request, the cash will just be removed from their account.

1. select the person you'd like to request cash from.
2. type in the amount of money, in dollars, that you'd like to request.
3. add a note to your request, (ie. 'buying a toy' or 'helping mom with chores').
4. Press the done button, confirm your request, and it will be send!

ACCEPTING A REQUEST:
Accepting a request only takes one simple step. On the home page, If someone is requesting from you, an alert will appear near the bottom of your screen asking if you'd like to accept the request. You can press 'yes' to send the money or 'no' to decline their request.

*TRANSACTION HISTORY*
By clicking the 'transaction history' button on the home page, you will be taken to a page where you can see ALL of your past transactions. You can also filter by person or transaction type by clicking the filter button in the top right. NOTE: As a parent, you can view your children's transaction history. See the Family Page section for more

FAMILY PAGE:
The family page can be found by clicking the family button in the top right of your screen. If you're a child, not much will be here, just your account name and a log out link. But as a parent, there are a ot of options.
The family section: In this section, you can see all of the names of the people in your family. To edit their allowance, delete them from the family, or see their transaction history, you can click on their name and you'll be taken to a page where you can see/edit these values.
Locking the family: If everyone is already in your family, you can check the 'lock family' box and it will disable the ability for people to join your family. This is helpful to provent your kids from entering themselves as parents and giving themselves money. To unlock/lock your family, simply toggle the checkbox to your desired setting, and press submit.

PROMISE CARDS:
Promise cards are a sort of IOU built in to sinecash. They are perfect for keeping track of promises, like the name suggests. You can use them as a gift to people, promising someone to take them to an experience or somthing similar.
To create a promise card, go to the menu and click on "create a promise card" this brings you to a page where you can input a title, description and amount for your promise card, as well as who you are sending it to. As soon as you click "done", the recipient will receive an email and be able to see and use the promise card(s).

SETTINGS:
In the settings page, you can change the theme of sinecash, and your mailing settings. Pick a background you like and you'll have it. If you'd like the default theme, check the default box and then select a background.

NOT IMPLIMENTED YET: To change your mail settings, select your prefered notifications. You can pick all, requests, or none, then press 'submit changes'.
