FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is UseFinLit?
UseFinLit is a financial literacy app for iOS and Android that teaches investing and personal finance through 600+ one-minute lessons in 32 modules, plus a 100K paper-trading simulator on real NYSE, NASDAQ and Borsa Istanbul prices with AI feedback on your practice trades. It is free to start.
How does the trading simulator work?
You start with 100,000 in virtual cash and can buy or sell real stocks and ETFs at near-live prices from NYSE, NASDAQ and Borsa Istanbul. No real money is at risk; all trades are simulated. When you place a trade, you write a short reason for it; AI reviews that reasoning against the lessons you’ve completed and gives you a short analysis, a 0–100 score and tips. Your first review is free; Premium makes them unlimited.
How much does UseFinLit cost?
UseFinLit is free to download. The free plan includes the first module (15 lessons), the trading simulator and your first AI trade review. Premium unlocks all 600+ lessons across 32 modules with audio narration, removes the energy limit and includes unlimited AI trade reviews. Premium is $4.99/month or $47.99/year on the US App Store and Google Play. New subscribers can try monthly Premium free for 14 days; cancel before the trial ends and you won’t be charged.
What markets and instruments does UseFinLit cover?
UseFinLit’s curriculum covers US equities (NYSE, NASDAQ), Turkish equities (Borsa Istanbul / BIST), ETFs, bonds, options, forex, cryptocurrency, mutual funds, technical analysis, fundamental analysis, portfolio theory, tax planning, 401(k), and Roth IRA basics.
Is UseFinLit good for beginners?
Yes. UseFinLit’s 32 modules start from budgeting and saving fundamentals — no prior finance knowledge required — and progress to advanced topics like options strategies and portfolio theory. Each lesson takes about one minute, so beginners can build knowledge in small daily sessions without overwhelm.
Is UseFinLit like Duolingo for investing?
UseFinLit uses gamification mechanics common to language-learning apps — XP, streaks, badges, daily tasks, and leaderboards — but applied to finance education. The format is similar to Duolingo (bite-sized lessons + quizzes), while the content covers stocks, ETFs, bonds, options, crypto, taxes, and retirement planning instead of languages.
