The Korea Federation of Banks Unveils Metaverse-Based Financial Education Quiz Map 'Bankrang Nolja'

The Korea Federation of Banks announced on the 21st that, as part of the banking sector's social responsibility project, it will release the quiz map "Bank-rang Nolja" for children and youth financial education in collaboration with Lemontree Co., Ltd., the developer of the application "Puffin."

Bank-rang Nolja is a learning-reward type financial education content where children and adolescents solve financial and economic quizzes and earn rewards in a virtual city within Puffin, an allowance management and financial education app for children and youth. The somewhat difficult and unfamiliar topics of finance and economics are presented in a game format tailored to the perspective of children and adolescents, allowing them to learn easily and enjoyably.

The quiz content consists of basic financial and economic knowledge such as "prevention of financial fraud" and "the role of banks," as well as knowledge related to Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG), and information on various free financial education programs provided by banks, all of which children can use practically in their daily lives.

To commemorate the launch of the Bank-rang Nolja quiz map, the Korea Federation of Banks is conducting an event offering a small reward to the first 10,000 participants. By obtaining an entry code from the Federation's social contribution platform Bankit and entering it into the Puffin app, users can access the Bank-rang Nolja quiz map. Detailed usage instructions can be found on the Puffin app and the Bankit website.

Puffin is a specialized allowance management and basic financial education service for children and adolescents launched by the edu-fintech company Lemontree Co., Ltd. It won the grand prize at D·DAY, hosted by the Banking Sector Youth Startup Foundation (d·camp), jointly established by the banking sector, and secured investment. Since its launch in March this year, Puffin has recorded a cumulative subscriber count of 170,000 as of November.

Cho Yong-byeong, Chairman of the Korea Federation of Banks, stated, "We hope that the launch of the Bank-rang Nolja quiz map will serve as an opportunity for more children and adolescents to develop interest and enthusiasm for financial education." He added, "We will continue to actively work to revitalize financial education by providing various financial education opportunities together with banks."
