      3 in 4 Gen Zers have reservations about employer-sponsored financial wellbeing programs due to concerns about hidden fees and employer access to personal information. 
 That’s why Crayon’s approach is different:- Unbiased expertise: Our focus is on guidance, not sales. Employees receive actionable financial education without hidden agendas. 
- Confidential: We have a track record of maintaining strict confidentiality — no personal financial information is shared with employers. 
- No additional costs to employees: The program is fully funded by employers, so there are no ‘gotcha’ fees.
