Stop Losing Money on Your Student Loan Debt

Round Up Your Spare Change & Pay Off Your Student Loan Sooner

High student loan debt is a financial burden affecting millions of students worldwide. Repaying only the minimum payments can end up doubling a loan, due to interest charges and paying extra payments each month isn’t always easy to budget for. ChangEd helps to bring down those high student loan balances by rounding up everyday purchases to the next dollar and sending the spare change over to the loans principal payment.

A Simple Student Loan Savings Plan That's Easy as 123

1. You Spend

ChangEd Analyzes Your Spending

By analyzing your transactions ChangEd can predict when student loans will be paid off and how much you have paid to date. They also calculate your purchases and automatically round up to the nearest dollar so you don’t have to.

2. You Save

All the legwork is done for you

Spare change gets transferred to your ChangEd FDIC - insured account. When the balance hits $100, they automatically send a payment towards the principal balance of your loan. No budgeting, just spending.

3. You Win

Say bye bye to that dreaded loan

With the ChangEd dashboard you can keep track of the payment progress by seeing the payments made, how much is being saved on interest and how much sooner your student loan will be paid off.

"I was introduced to ChangEd late last year, and I’ve been using it for the past 4 months.
I'm happy to report that I am just about to have my 2nd, $100 payment applied to my student loan! I feel a real sense of empowerment knowing that every time I swipe my debit card I’m also chipping away at my loan."

- Amy McGraw (Vice President, Tropical Financial Credit Union)
