Video modules, games, and choose-your-own-adventure stories cover real-world financial decisions, with learners earning points as they progress.

It is available on Android, iOS, and the web, including touchscreen mobile devices through most up-to-date browsers. Educators can use voice-overs for questions and instructions and adjust color contrast. They cannot currently view all students’ progress at once, but can check an individual learner’s completed missions in that learner’s Award Center. Students under 13 need parent or guardian permission to create an account. FitMoney says it does not sell personal information to third parties, but may share it with service providers or an associated school or educational organization.

$uperSquad pairs financial lessons with games and interactive stories, and is free for learners. Its progress view is limited to individual learners, and students under 13 need permission to create accounts.

$uperSquad suits K–6 students learning about financial decisions at school or at home, as well as educators and caregivers supporting that learning. Educators who need to see all students’ progress together should note that this view is not currently available.

FitMoney $uperSquad is a financial-literacy curriculum built around games and interactive stories for students in kindergarten through sixth grade. It suits families and educators who want a free, age-leveled way to teach money skills. Its broad curriculum is a strong draw, but teachers who need a class-wide progress dashboard should consider another option.

Overview

FitMoney, a philanthropic nonprofit, presents $uperSquad for learning at school and at home. Students earn points as they work through activities about real-world financial decisions, with material leveled for K–6. The range of topics makes it useful as a broad introduction rather than a tool focused on a single financial skill.

Key features

Video modules, games, and choose-your-own-adventure stories offer different ways to engage with lessons. The curriculum covers budgeting, credit, investing, financial simulations, guided practice, and personalized learning; Common Sense Education rates it four stars. That mix gives educators and caregivers a range of formats and topics, though the progress view is less suited to classroom oversight: completed missions can be checked in an individual learner’s Award Center, but educators cannot see every student’s progress together.

Voice-overs for questions and game instructions, along with a color-contrast adjustment, provide practical accessibility controls. Students under 13 need permission from a parent or guardian to create an account. FitMoney says it does not sell personal information to third parties, but may share it with service providers or an associated school or educational organization. It may collect a child’s first name and last initial, age, parent email, and technical interaction data, including to obtain parental consent where COPPA requires it.

The FAQ recommends a persistent internet connection of 400 Kbps per connected user, an up-to-date browser, 4 GB of RAM, and a screen at least 6.5 inches diagonally and 375 × 667 pixels. Touchscreen play is supported on Android and iPhone through most up-to-date browsers. Educators can contact [email protected] for classroom support.

Pricing

$uperSquad costs nothing. The plan is free for every learner and includes the K–6 curriculum, so families and schools can use the program without a paid tier or trial decision. No paid plan is offered here; the trade-off is the limited educator progress view rather than a stated reduction in curriculum access.

Platforms

$uperSquad supports Android, iOS, and web. The FAQ also describes touchscreen play on Android and iPhone using most up-to-date browsers, making mobile use possible as well as browser-based access.

Who it's for

This is a good fit for K–6 learners, parents, and educators seeking a free introduction to several financial topics through interactive activities. It is less appropriate for teachers whose workflow depends on reviewing class progress in one place, since progress checks are individual. Families should also account for the parental permission requirement for students under 13.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Free for every learner, with lessons spanning budgeting, credit, investing, simulations, guided practice, and personalized learning.
• Pros: Video, games, and interactive stories are leveled for K–6, and voice-overs and contrast adjustment add useful accessibility options.
• Cons: Educators cannot view all students’ progress at once, making class-wide monitoring less convenient.
• Cons: Learners under 13 need a parent or guardian’s permission to create an account.
