Inspiration
Most college students, especially young women, are intimidated by finances. Available resources are either too intimidating or too hard to navigate without prior financial knowledge. So, our aim was to combine budgeting and financial literacy with ease, while also making it an enjoyable experience for women who use our application. To add to this ease of use, we also wanted to make it most accessible to the Gen Z demographic, so an app format combined with a helpful website to give advice was the best approach, of course complete with fun colors and graphics for a peaceful and engaging experience.
