Money Wise Challenge™ | Digital Financial Literacy Competition

Money Wise Challenge

The UK's only financial literacy e-sports competition

The UK’s only LARGEST financial literacy competition has returned for its fourth time. On 21^st June the Money Wise Challenge opened the doors of the Platinum Suite to more than 600 students across 100 schools. With the support of The London Foundation for Banking and Finance and ExCeL London as our venue sponsor and The London Foundation for Banking and Finance, the room was overfilled with enthusiastic, determined students, ready for their mission ahead.

The cost-of-living curse struck the citizens of London once again! With the havoc ensued by mysterious villains, students were challenged to defend their home city from:

🔥 Debt

🔥 Unemployment

🔥 Inflation

The Money Wise Challenge featured three rounds of Dot Dot Fire’s award-winning Money Wise Game, winner of the Lord Mayor's Dragon Award for Leadership in Financial Literacy and is ranked Top 2 Educational Mobile Games, above Kahoot and Minecraft Education.

*2021 Game of the Year awarded by the Institute of Financial Literacy (USA)

With the cost-of-living curse defeated ONCE AND FOR ALL, we have our students to thank for their commitment to saving the citizens of London! Let’s commemorate our top 10 achieving schools from each Key Stage Group.
