Groundbreaking
app puts financial future in the palm of your hand
United
Way of Greater Atlanta has launched Money Game 2 app. The
app is the re-launch of Money Game, a free mobile application
providing a new way for people to become engaged in a subject that
some may consider boring – financial wellbeing. The new version of
the app uses financial trivia to motivate users to learn how to
become financially self-sufficient so they can do more than live from
paycheck to paycheck. And the education doesn’t stop there. Users
can obtain financial education certification – often a prerequisite
for home buying or starting an Individual Development Account (IDA).
“According
to the National Foundation for Credit Counseling, two in five adults
say that they are now saving less than they were a year ago and 39%
do not have any nonretirement savings,” says United Way of Greater
Atlanta President Milton J. Little Jr. “Our Money Game 2 app has a
reach beyond the classroom setting and educates users by providing
tools they need to put their financial future in the palm of their
hand.” Developed for users 16 and up, the Money Game 2 App features
trivia topics including: -Five Steps to Debt Free Living -How to Be a
Better Money Manager -Identity Theft -Prepare for the Unexpected
-Investing Basics -Raising Money Smart Kids -Saving for Retirement In
addition to trivia, the application will provide money management
tools and financial education certification.
New this year, the mobile application has also been optimized for desktops for use in classrooms and other educational purposes. Curriculum for the application was developed between United Way and the SunTrust Foundation. The free mobile app is now available for download on Android and iOS operating systems via Google Play and the Apple Store.
