Happy Money Offers Up Free Wellness Course

Orange County-based Happy Money, which is backed by Anthemis Group, Tencent Holdings and CMFG Ventures, says it is launching a free, 6-week wellness course it calls "Peace". According to Happy Money, the free course uses cognitive behavioral therapy, positive psychology, and psychometrics to help people understand and reduce the impact of financial stress on their lives. Happy Money said it will be launching the new course through its credit union partners. Happy Money develops financial technology to help consumers pay off their credit cards, and help users become savers rather than spenders; the company calls credit cards "sad money" designed to "keep you on the endless treadmill of debt and minimum monthly payments."
