About FinLe

Last updated 30 July 2026

FinLe teaches children aged 9–16 how money actually works — budgeting, digital banking, staying safe online, saving and investing — in five-minute, gamified lessons led by Penny the Coin.

Why we built it

Most children leave school without ever being taught how a bank account, a credit score or a scam text actually works. FinLe fills that gap with short, playful lessons that fit into a school night, with a parent dashboard so families can talk about money together.

What we teach

  • Money Basics — Coins, notes, needs vs wants and saving sensibly.
  • Digital Money — Debit cards, contactless and mobile banking made easy.
  • Smart Budgeting — Pocket money, goals and tracking your spending.
  • Staying Safe Online — Spot scams, build strong passwords and protect privacy.
  • Investing & Enterprise — Risk vs reward and your first business idea.
  • Future of FinTech — AI in banking, crypto basics and FinTech careers.

How we treat children’s data

No advertising, no behavioural tracking, no in-app purchases and no chat between users. Accounts are held by a parent or guardian, leaderboards are off by default and only ever show a nickname, and parents can download or delete everything in one tap. The detail is in our privacy policy, and there is a version written for children too.

For schools

Schools can run FinLe with a class, follow pupil progress and message parents securely. Email us and we will set you up.
