Yes. If you’ve experienced Financial Peace University (FPU) and want to see it available for your unit, the way the military provides it is through SmartDollar, Ramsey Solutions’ financial wellness program.
Instead of individuals covering the cost of FPU on their own, SmartDollar allows commands to sponsor access for their service members and families, giving them FPU plus so much more.
How It Works
- Employer-Sponsored Access: The command covers the cost of SmartDollar, giving service members free access.
- FPU Included: The full Financial Peace University course is built into the program.
- More Than FPU: SmartDollar provides EveryDollar Premium budgeting app, 1:1 financial coaching, wills, tax prep, and ongoing lessons.
- Easy for Leaders: Units provide access, while service members engage directly and privately.
Why It Matters for Service Members
- Less Financial Stress: Proven tools and support to take control of money.
- Tangible Results: Pay off debt, build savings, and create financial security.
- Confidential & Flexible: Service members engage at their own pace, anytime, anywhere.
Why It Matters for Leaders
- Mission-Ready Teams: Reduced stress means better focus in the field.
- Improved Retention: A meaningful benefit that demonstrates care for service members and their families.
- Stronger Culture: Builds unity and resilience across the unit.
Bottom Line
While FPU has transformed countless lives individually, SmartDollar is how the military can bring that same transformation to entire units. It’s FPU expanded into a full financial wellness solution that serves both service members and commands.
Note: SmartDollar is registered with SAM.gov, making it simple for military units to access and provide as a financial wellness benefit.
