Cashk@tz is a BBC schools TV series from the 2010s, covering citizenship for primary school pupils.

The teen band K@tz, made up of teenagers Jez, Amy and Max, is starting to have some success and the band members are earning some money. They need to make decisions about spending and saving, and find various other calls on their money including tax, philanthropy and replacing stolen musical instruments.

The wise dog Muttford is on hand to talk to viewers about what they are doing and whether there might be better ideas.

The programme is a sequel to ©opyk@tz Beware! which shows the band's early days, when they were called the Alleyk@tz and Muttford called himself an "Internet Detective".
