A new survey from Visa Canada reports Canadians spend 26% less on prom than our American counterparts. Also, we are willing to shoulder 81% of the cost for our teens as opposed to 56% American parents are willing to cover for their teenagers.
In order to keep all these expenses in check, Visa Canada has unveiled a free smartphone app called Plan’it Prom. The app covers different aspects of prom planning, including features such as a budget calculator, prom countdown, budget health meter, and prom timeline.
