Wildfire Credit Union has announced its partnership with Greenlight Financial Technology, Inc. to provide its members free* access to the award winning “debit card and money app for kids”. This partnership is part of Wildfire’s commitment to youth financial literacy, and to be our members’ financial institution of choice for life by providing innovative services, benefits, and personalized financial guidance.

Greenlight offers a debit card and app that teaches kids and teens how to earn, save, give and spend wisely – all with parental supervision. Using the Greenlight app, parents can send money instantly, automate allowance payments, manage chores, set flexible spending controls, get real-time notifications of all transactions, and more. Kids get hands-on money management experience, along with access to Greenlight Level Up™, an in-app financial literacy game with a best-in-class curriculum, educational challenges, and rewards.

Ben Denay, President and CEO of Wildfire commented, “Wildfire is thrilled to launch a partnership with Greenlight and we look forward to helping build a future of financially savvy kids that will grow to be money smart adults.”
