About LearnLux

LearnLux is on a mission to make financial guidance accessible for all. In our world today, knowledge about personal finance is not a priority at any level of the education system and as a result, people miss out on their prime investment period, fail to develop the credit they’ll need later in life, and make big financial decisions out of fear rather than education. LearnLux’s learning tools and lessons are built to be engaging, interactive & jargon-free, and our team of independent Financial Advisors provide world-class unbiased guidance. To share our mission at scale, we partner with Human Resources departments of leading companies to help employees understand their benefits such as 401k options, refinance their student loans, and do their best work every day because they feel great about their finances. We’re backed by prominent investors such as Ashton Kutcher’s fund Sound Ventures and Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff.
