Teach money skills they'll actually use
Students earn a salary from classroom jobs, spend at your class store, and save for goals they choose. Financial literacy practiced every day — not just taught from a worksheet.
Up and running in one prep period
No training required, no student emails collected — three steps and your classroom economy is live.
Create your classroom
Import your roster from a CSV or spreadsheet — no student emails needed — name your currency, and print login cards.
Post jobs and stock your store
Give jobs a salary and a payday schedule. Add rewards students actually want, priced however you like.
Run your first payday
Students earn, spend, and save. Every transaction records itself — you just teach.
One small economy, a year of teachable moments
ClassCents handles the bookkeeping so the lessons happen on their own.
Curriculum standards
It's already in your curriculum
Financial literacy isn't an extra. Your curriculum already asks for it — and a classroom economy is the most natural way to teach it. Every standard comes with activities built on the earning, spending, and saving your students already do.
