    Brief

    Warwickshire County Council is seeking to understand the market for digital pocket money solutions to support children and young people in its residential care. The Council currently manages pocket money through cash-based processes that, while functional, present challenges with financial control, auditability, safeguarding, and administrative efficiency. The Council is exploring secure, user-friendly solutions such as prepaid cards, digital wallets, or app-based platforms that can: • Improve financial governance with full audit trails and transparent reporting • Strengthen safeguarding with appropriate fund oversight by carers and corporate parents • Reduce manual administration and cash handling risks • Provide simple, accessible experiences for children, young people, and staff • Enable standardised processes across multiple homes This preliminary market engagement seeks to understand available solutions, delivery models, market maturity, potential risks, implementation considerations, and supplier appetite for innovation. The Council will use this information to inform a future business case and procurement strategy focused on best value, compliance, and improved outcomes for children and young people. This exercise does not represent a commitment to procure at this stage.
