Young people today face more challenging financial choices and more uncertain economic and job prospects given rapid socioeconomic transformation, digitalization and technological change. However, they often lack the education, training and tools to make informed decisions on matters affecting their financial well-being.

A combination of proven learning methods
Backed by scientific research, the Gimi platform is based on theories of experiential & social learning, and features four fundamental principles to provide children with fun, efficient and effortless learning opportunities.
Financial education with Gimi is:
- Hands-on
- Social
- Meaningful
- Continuous
Hands-on
Children learn money management skills not by reading, but by doing. At Gimi, we:
- Give children a tool to manage their money
- Help children learn from their experiences
- Give children a way to use their newfound knowledge
Social
Children pick up financial attitudes, habits, and values by observing and interacting with others. At Gimi, we:
- Give children the opportunity to learn at home
- Give parents a tool to support their young ones
- Spread knowledge together with our ambassadors
Meaningful
Children learn best when the learnings are immediately relevant and useful, and obtained independently. At Gimi, we:
- Make learnings are relevant in the everyday life of children
- Tailor educational content to fit the user
- Educate children on their own terms
Continuous
Children need to refresh learnings every once in a while to truly retain what they learned. At Gimi, we:
- Provide learnings spread out over time
- Give children an opportunity to refresh learnings
- Strive to always update the app
