DURHAM, N.C.–Zogo, a fintech that says it’s on a mission to drive teen financial literacy, said it has partnered with 11 financial institutions to distribute its award-winning financial literacy app.
The Zogo app guides teens through 300+ bite-sized educational modules that cover the national standards for financial literacy. As teens complete modules, they accumulate points that can be redeemed for gift cards.
Each Zogo partner will receive an institution-specific access code to the app that can be distributed to their customers creating a unique experience, the company said. By entering the code during onboarding, the Zogo app becomes branded with the partner's logo.
"Growing up, we didn't have good experiences learning about personal finance," says Bolun Li, CEO and co-founder of Zogo. "With Zogo, we wanted to create a financial education experience our peers would actually use. We are excited to partner with community focused financial institutions to bring this vision to life."
The 11 financial institutions are:
- CommunityWide Federal Credit Union (Indiana)
- Pyramid Federal Credit Union (Arizona)
- MassMutual Federal Credit Union (Massachusetts)
- West Town Bank & Trust (North Carolina, Illinois)
- Magnolia Federal Credit Union (Mississippi)
- Southern Chautauqua Federal Credit Union (New York)
- Diamond Credit Union (Pennsylvania)
- North Star Community Credit Union (North Dakota)
- Pen Air Federal Credit Union (Florida)
- First Bank & Trust (Louisiana)
- RelyOn Credit Union (Texas)
Zogo was founded by a group of GenZ entrepreneurs from Duke University, and since launching, has won numerous industry accolades, including "Best of Show" at Finovate Fall 2019 and NACUSO Next Big Idea Competition.
