20 investing stages. 172 lessons. 100+ mini games. Free.
Pick where your $10k rides out 30 years.
TradeWize lets you make your beginner mistakes in practice, where they teach you something instead of costing you something.
Expensive lessons hit harder when every mistake is real.
Guesswork leads to emotional decisions, shaky confidence, and losses that could have been avoided with practice.
Learn the basics first, then build confidence step by step.
Short lessons explain what you're doing and why. You build steady habits and a real foundation before any money is on the line.
How TradeWize Works
Short lessons, interactive mini games, and a zero-risk simulator work together, so you practice dozens of real decisions before your first real dollar.
Step 1
Short lessons that turn investing concepts into quick wins. Pass the quiz, earn coins to trade with later.
Step 2
Real-world mini games that show how your decisions play out. Earn more coins as you go.
Step 3
Use your earned coins in our Trading Simulator. Build experience before real money is involved.
Every lesson is built on scientifically proven learning methods, the same techniques behind top language and medical-education apps. Because if it doesn't stick, it doesn't count.

Real reviews from beginners learning with TradeWize.
I've tried learning this stuff from videos before and always ended up more confused. This felt much easier because everything is in one place and broken down properly. It's not too much at once, which makes it easier to stick with.
The best thing is that it doesn't assume you already know loads about finance. It starts simple and builds from there. Nice design as well, so it doesn't feel like reading some boring textbook. Good starting point for beginners.
Didn't expect much at first, but it's actually quite good. The app feels smooth, the lessons are quick, and it doesn't make investing seem impossible to understand. Would recommend it to someone who wants to learn the basics without overthinking it.
The first 20 stages teach you to invest: index funds, allocation, long-horizon discipline. Free forever. Premium opens the rest, technical analysis, options, futures, forex, crypto, and real-time market data.
The long-term investor's curriculum: index funds, allocation, Foundations, and the simulator. No card, no trial timer.
Active-trading curriculum: technical analysis, options, futures, forex, crypto. Real-time market data, unlimited hearts, and pro tooling.
