Engaging Gen Z is a top priority for Altra

Financial education is one of Altra’s biggest opportunities to build early trust and awareness among future members. However, Gen Z isn’t engaged by slideshows.

Altra wanted to speak their language through games that are interactive and fun.

“Cashy has offered us the opportunity to focus on one of our strategic initiatives for shaping the future of our credit union — youth.”
— Lori Horstman

Students want to play it every day

Once students experience Cashy, they’re hooked.

“Students want to play it every day,” Tony says. “Teachers tell me they have to remind them there’s other curriculum to cover.
— Tony Beyer


What used to be a quiet classroom now buzzes with laughter, and competition. Students start wanting to learn more and more about finance.

Jumping right in, no setup needed

Tony says simplicity was key. Cashy’s plug-and-play design means there’s no setup or training required.

“I just start playing it. It doesn’t take long for students to figure it out — they pick it up fast.”Students want to play it every day

Tony opens the game, gives a quick intro, and lets the students take over — keeping the focus on fun, participation, and learning.

Play and discuss

Cashy is built around active learning — students don’t just listen, they do. They make decisions, play through real-life financial situations, and see the results of their choices unfold.

After playing, we reflect and talk about what they learned. It’s been really effective.
— Tony Beyer


It’s hands-on learning that sparks real conversations and helps concepts stick long after the game ends.
