Our story

From idea to reality

The problem that drives us

Our founders are only 21 years old and know from their own experience what it feels like to be completely at sea with money. During their training they got into debt themselves but fought their way back. That personal experience motivated them to build a solution to help other young people avoid these challenges.

Our solution

With BeAFox we've finally created a way to teach finance – often seen as boring – in a lasting and understandable way. We want the next generation to gain financial knowledge independently and with motivation. No pressure, no feeling of being forced. Through gamification, clear structure, and evidence-based methods we make financial education an experience that's fun.

What drives us

We want:

Education that makes a difference.

We believe in a world where everyone understands and can use financial education.
