I'm building EduCardX — a student-first financial platform focused on education and career expenses

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm building EduCardX, a student-focused fintech and education platform designed around a problem I keep seeing: students often have education and career expenses, but most financial products aren't designed specifically around those needs. EduCardX is being designed around student-first spending, with the broader goal of helping students access and manage opportunities such as: • Courses & certifications • Internships • Projects and career-related expenses • Education services • Other student-focused financial needs The bigger vision is to combine education + financial access + student opportunities in one ecosystem. Where we are now We're currently in the product-building and validation stage. I'm working on the product experience, partnerships, technology and regulatory framework before launch. I'm sharing EduCardX here because I don't want to build this based only on assumptions. I want your honest feedback If you were a student using something like this: 1. What education/career expense would you most want help paying for? 2. Would you trust a financial product specifically designed for students? Why or why not? 3. What features would make you actually use it? 4. What would immediately make you reject it? I'm especially interested in feedback from students, founders, fintech builders and educators. This is still being built, so criticism is just as valuable as support. Building EduCardX in public — one piece of feedback at a time.
