Does MemoryBank work with Robinhood?
Yes. Robinhood links to MemoryBank, read-only, through Plaid (it's in Plaid's current list, checked 2026-11-02). Your child's Robinhood account shows in their own view next to their other accounts, with live prices and plain-English explanations from Penny.
Robinhood accounts for kids
Robinhood added custodial accounts for kids in 2026 and is the brokerage behind the official Trump Accounts app.
Custodial account
An investment account a parent opens for a child, with recurring contributions and gifts from family.
Trump Account
The government-seeded account for children born 2025 through 2028, opened through the official Trump Accounts app.
Account details are as described by Robinhood in November 2026 and can change; check there before opening an account. MemoryBank isn't affiliated with Robinhood. Sources: Pulse 2.0: Robinhood family products (March 2026), Finance Magnates: Robinhood and the Trump Accounts app.
How to connect Robinhood
- 1Create a free MemoryBank account and add your kids.
- 2On the Starter or Family plan, choose Connect an institution, then “Brokerage, retirement, or 529”.
- 3Search for Robinhood on the Plaid screen and sign in there. MemoryBank never sees your login.
- 4Pick your child's Robinhood accounts, then assign each one to the right kid.
Prefer not to link? Add the account by hand on any plan, including Free. Holdings are priced live; a 529 can be a single balance you update when the statement arrives.
What your child sees
On a paired phone, tablet or wall display, your child sees their Robinhood account next to everything else that's theirs: the total, how it's growing, and the companies they own, each with a plain-English story. They can ask Penny, the built-in AI money mentor, what anything means at their age, from 5 to 18+. They can't trade, transfer or withdraw; those features don't exist in MemoryBank.
