PiggyPoints: Building Trust and Financial Confidence

Inspiration

The inspiration for PiggyPoints came from observing the challenges many people, especially Gen Z, face when it comes to understanding and managing their credit scores. Our team noticed that a lack of financial literacy, coupled with skepticism toward opaque banking systems, made it difficult for individuals to take control of their credit health. We wanted to create a solution that not only simplifies credit management but also engages users in a way that feels empowering and rewarding.

What I Learned

Through this project, we gained a deeper understanding of the barriers people face in navigating credit systems. We also learned about the importance of trust and transparency in financial tools. Researching user preferences revealed that gamification and personalized recommendations could make financial education more accessible and enjoyable.
