Future Investors FAQs
Answers to common parent questions before booking.
About the camp
What is Future Investors?
A five-day holiday bootcamp where children run a working economy. They open a KidzBank account, invest in shares, property and startups, ride out a pretend market crash, and build, brand and pitch their own business.
Who is it for?
Children aged 9 to 12. Children aged 6 to 8 suit Little Money Makers, our camp the week before.
Is it real money or a real stock market?
No. Children use Kidz Cash, our pretend currency. Nothing involves real money or a real stock market.
My child isn't good at maths. Is that okay?
Yes. Everything is hands-on and game-based, pitched to their age. Many children find money easier once they can hold it.
What if my child is shy?
Every child has a role in a small team, and our staff draw quieter children in. Confidence grows through the week.
What is the L.I.F.E. approach?
Leadership, Investing, Finance and Earning. In Future Investors that means leading a startup team and pitching it, investing in shares, property and startups, managing a KidzBank card, a budget, tax and surprise bills, and earning through payday, rent and profit.
How big is the group?
Up to 25 children with 3 adults: a lead instructor and 2 support staff.
What will my child learn?
Banking, budgeting, investing, risk and reward, real-world costs and entrepreneurship.
What are skill stocks?
Children trade five life skills as skill stocks: Innovation, Time Management, Collaboration, Financial Responsibility and Critical Thinking. They earn shares in a skill when our staff see them show it.

Questions
Can families come on Friday?
Yes. Families join at 1:15pm for the Market Walk, the pitches and the Top Investor podium.
Will my child lose money in the market crash?
Only Kidz Cash, and that’s the point. Children practise staying calm and deciding whether to sell, hold or buy, with no real money at risk.
Is there a winner?
The week ends with the Top Investor podium. Every child counts their net worth and gets a certificate showing it.
What does my child take home?
A KidzBank card and lanyard, an Investor Portfolio book with their own KidzBank passbook, collectable skill share cards, a certificate with their net worth, and a KidzEconomy goodie bag.
Prices, booking and policies
How much does it cost?
S$799 per child. The launch price is S$699 for the first 15 children per camp, or until 25 November 2026, whichever comes first. The price includes snacks, materials and the goodie bag.
Are there discounts?
Siblings: S$50 off each extra child. A friend who books with your referral code receives S$50 off, and the referring family earns a S$50 future-camp credit after the friend’s payment has been received and verified by KidzEconomy. The credit is not a cash payout. It is automatically applied to the referring family’s next booking when they use the same parent email address. One available credit can be used per booking; it is reserved for 24 hours while payment is pending and becomes used only after that booking’s payment is verified. If that booking is marked Failed or Refunded, the credit is released. A future-camp credit cannot be combined with a promo or referral code, but the sibling discount can still apply. Approved promo codes also give S$50 off. Only one S$50 promo or referral discount applies to each child; each additional sibling receives the sibling discount instead.
Can I book both camps?
Yes. If you have a child aged 6 to 8 and another aged 9 to 12, book each into their own camp. The sibling discount applies to each extra child.
How do I book?
1. Fill in the form: choose the camp and add your child’s details. It takes about 3 minutes. 2. Pay by PayNow. 3. Once payment is received and verified, get your confirmation, receipt and parent guide by email.
How do I pay?
By PayNow to KidzEconomy (UEN 202423333D). Scan the QR in your banking app, enter the exact amount, and type your booking reference in the reference field. Then email your payment screenshot as instructed on the booking page.
How long is my place held?
24 hours from registering. If payment hasn’t arrived by then, the place may be released.
When will I hear back?
Once your payment arrives and is verified, usually within one working day, we’ll email your confirmation, receipt and parent guide.
Is GST charged?
No. KidzEconomy is not GST-registered.
What is your refund policy?
Fees are non-refundable after payment, except for special cases reviewed individually or if KidzEconomy cancels the camp. There are no refunds for missed days. See our Refund and Cancellation Policy for details.
What if the camp doesn’t go ahead?
If we cancel a camp, including if it doesn’t reach 15 children, you get a full refund.
Will my child be photographed?
Only if you agree. Consent for photos, videos and testimonials is optional and never a condition of booking. Without it, your child still joins every activity. We leave them out of published photos and videos, or blur them where that isn’t possible.
How do you protect my data?
We follow Singapore’s PDPA. Medical and allergy notes go only to staff who need them. Our Data Protection Officer is Anand (anand@kidzeconomy.com). See our Privacy Policy for details.
Can my employer sponsor my child’s place?
Yes. Companies can fully or partly sponsor places for employees’ children, and parents still book the place themselves. Ask your HR team to email anand@kidzeconomy.com.
Who do I contact?
Anand at anand@kidzeconomy.com or Braden at braden@kidzeconomy.com.
