As a product manager, I believe that offering a checking account for high school students is a valuable opportunity to introduce young people to financial responsibility and build brand loyalty with our company, Affirm. By providing a checking account tailored specifically to high school students, we can offer features that are relevant to their needs, such as low fees and easy-to-use mobile banking tools. To ensure that our checking account is successful, we will need to conduct extensive market research and user testing to understand the unique needs and preferences of high school students in this area. We will also need to work closely with our legal and compliance teams to ensure that our offering meets all regulatory requirements. In addition to the core checking account features, we could also consider offering financial education resources and tools to help students learn about budgeting, saving, and investing. This could be a valuable differentiator for our product and help us build long-term relationships with our customers. Overall, I believe that offering a checking account for high school students is a smart strategic move for Affirm, and I am excited to work on this project to bring it to life.
