CO-OP THINK Prize 2014: “Where’s My Allowance” with Cy Fair FCU’s Brett Wooden

by. Mike Lawson

This week we will be running the three finalists for CO-OP Financial Services’ 2014 THINK Prize competition with $10,000 riding on the winning entry. First up is Cy Fair Federal Credit Union’s SVP of Marketing and IT Brett Wooden. Brett has come up with a financial education iPad app for kids called “Where’s My Allowance?” This app is to be used in schools nationwide — and he intends to have credit unions right in the mix as the providers of this app, so they will top of mind when it comes to financial services for parents, students, and teachers.

Check out our conversation to see how Brett came up with idea and what his goals are when it’s ready to launch — oh yeah, and what plans to do with the $10,000 if he wins. Enjoy!
