Watchout Wall Street, Snapchat is turning kids into “StockStars” with a new investing game. YPulse told you how apps are making the world of investing less intimidating and more engaging, and Snapchat is making it even more exciting for young people to learn the ropes of investing. The social platform’s next “Mini” app will be StockStars, a virtual portfolio game from the trading education company Invstr. Users can play around with $1 million in fake money, invest in portfolios that mimic real-world market conditions, and compete in challenges with friends. StockStars uses industry lingo while also providing educational resources that teach players the intricacies of the stock market. While apps like Robinhood and Reddit have made it easier for young people to learn about investing, StockStars aims to help Gen Z and Millennials build the confidence to invest in real-life portfolios by messing around with (fake) virtual currency inside one of their favorite apps.
