What you gain when you beat The Imp

After your 7-day challenge, you'll:

🌱 Stop impulse spending without tracking apps or spreadsheets

Daily check-ins give you instant clarity on your spending without budgets, graphs, or anxiety.

😈 Spend less on temptations and more on what actually matters

The Imp hits you with tiny consequences (withering, stealing) that keep you from impulse purchases so you have more for rent, groceries, nights out, and stuff you actually care about.

💰 Beat impulse spending and earn real garden rewards

Watch your garden flourish with new plants and creatures as your financial health levels up. Exchange plants for real rewards.

Heroes who beat last week's challenge saved $66 on average. No spreadsheets. No budgeting apps. Just one daily text.

What heroes said after taming The Imp

I find myself being much more mindful of my spending, where it was barely a fleeting thought before. Tame The Imp is like that little angel on your shoulder, reminding you to be more aware of giving into the impulse temptation.

— Miki

Tame The Imp sounded like a fun way to keep my food delivery spending in check, so I gave it a try. Two weeks in, I'm honestly amazed at how much it's helped. I'm spending less, feeling healthier, and finally breaking my habit in a fun way. Highly recommend giving it a shot!

FAQs

What is Tame The Imp?
It's a weekly challenge where you track a spending category of your choice, reply to a daily text, and grow a virtual garden as you build better money habits.
How do I join?
Sign up by clicking the 'Start my 7-day challenge' button and entering the details for your challenge preferences. The challenge starts on the upcoming Monday. You'll receive daily texts to check in on your spending once the challenge starts.
How do I win the 7-day challenge?
You win by doing two things:
- Reply to every daily text
- Spend less than your personal goal

Winning means that:
- Your garden continues to grow
How do I lose the 7-day challenge?
You lose if:
- You miss replying to a daily text
- You spend more than your personal goal

But don't fret! Even if you spend more than your personal goal, as long as you reply every day your plants will not wither.
What is a season?
A season is a set of four weekly challenges. During a season, heroes can climb the leaderboard by actively participating in challenges.

The top three heroes each season win prizes.

The leaderboard resets each season.
What do I need to do each day?
For one week, we text you each day asking how much you spent in the challenge category (like Food Delivery). You reply with a number - that's it.
How does the garden work?
Every daily reply:

- Grows your existing plants
- Adds a new baby plant or creature (once your garden is fully healthy)

Your garden is updated and visualized for you every day. You'll receive a link to view your garden when you respond to daily check-in texts.

Your garden persists across weekly challenges and grows over time.
What are coins and points?
Coins are an in-game currency. They carry over from season to season. Spend them in the rewards chest on items you want for your garden.

Points fuel the leaderboard. They reset at the start of each season.

To earn coins and points:

- Trade plants and animals from your garden. Higher rarity means more coins and points
- Reply to your daily texts. Each day you reply, you'll earn 10 coins and 10 points

To exchange coins for rewards, tap on the rewards chest in your garden.

Exchange coins for eligible rewards by tapping 'Exchange'.

When you exchange coins, they are deducted from your coins balance.
What happens if I don't reply for a day?
One of your plants or animals withers and you don't earn coins and points for the day's check-in text.

Reply the next day and one withered plant becomes healthy again.

No new plants appear until the entire garden is unwithered.
What happens if I spend more than my goal?
The Imp steals one plant or animal from your garden - healthy or withered. But you still stay in the challenge, you don't lose any points, and your garden continues to grow as long as you reply every day.
Can I quit mid-challenge?
Yes. Reply STOP at any time.
