We give today’s generation the money know-how
to make better financial decisions.
Young people are left to navigate complex financial decisions on their own, feeling confused, and unprepared when it comes to managing their money. Building strong financial literacy from an early age is critical, despite its limited presence in school curriculum. Without guidance, young people are left to form bad money habits.
We understand that young people are curious to start their financial journey. We recognise that everyone learns differently, making content accessible and engaging. Developed by educators, learning is packed with interaction and topical content that aligns with national financial education guidelines.
Squirrel is reshaping the way young people view money. We help learners to understand money now, to empower them for their future. As they progress, learners gain invaluable skills that they can build upon to effectively manage their finances and gain money confidence. We bring a combination of finance and fun!
Tap, swipe, and play for a real-world and practical gamified learning experience. Take on bite-sized money challenges, quizzes, mini games and more. Test your skills and make quick wins.
