At a time when upskilling and online education is catching up to speed, BrightChamps is almost synonymous with innovation in this field.
The company first brought a new wave in EdTech with the introduction of financial literacy to students, along with making futuristic skills like Coding, Artificial Intelligence, Machine learning, and Robotics available to kids above the age of 6.
In a noteworthy and unique move, BrightChamps became one of the first EdTech companies in India to accept cryptocurrency. The company recently partnered with TripleA, a Singapore-based crypto payment gateway to be able to accept cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Tether, and Ethereum, as payment methods.
Staying true to its name, BrightChamps is now pioneering a new age of transformation in the EdTech industry by launching its own currency.
Yes, you read it right! BrightChamps now has a currency of its own called BrightBEANS.

What are BrightBEANS?
BrightBEANS is a new feature launched by BrightChamps in their most recent app update on April 13, 2022. BrightBEANS are nothing but BrightChamps’ currency that can be used by students to avail fantastic prizes and various perks.
Students are rewarded with BrightBEANS every time they meet their objectives and complete a set of goals. They can also earn up to 75 BrightBEANS based on class participation, project submission, performance, punctuality, and assessment.
Apart from this, participation in events such as Hackathons gives them a chance to earn more beans.
Idea Breakdown
- Class Performance: Each student will be graded on their attendance, punctuality, and attentiveness by the teacher. A student will receive 20 Beans if they demonstrate their diligence regularly.
- 6th and 8th Class Bonus: This incentive of Big 250 Beans is reserved for the most dedicated students. Students who take their 6th and 8th lessons every month will receive this bonus.
- Global House & Hackathon: Every student who attends the Global House, and participates in a Hackathon will receive 250 Beans. This is also applicable for App publishing.
The idea of BrightBEANS stems from a desire to instill higher motivation in children. Growth can be hampered by reaching a certain degree of knowledge and comfort in any subject, but when a goal and a reward are added to the picture, magic happens.
When students begin to earn Beans, they will be motivated to improve their performance, and their competitive spirit will grow in parallel. This will be reflected in their results.
Further, kids will gradually understand the importance of saving and spending their earnings. This will help them cultivate the habit of earning and budgeting, right from an early age, and will prove to be extremely beneficial in the future.
How can kids check their BrightBEANS?
The BrightCHAMPS learner app will store all the information required for them to check their BrightBean balance and monthly map of the BrightBEANS earned.
Note: Make sure you have an updated version of the BrightCHAMPS learner app.
BrightBEANS is unquestionably another feather in the BrightChamps’ cap, and this is only the beginning. BrightChamps is geared up to walk down the path of innovations, to set the trend of technological advancements.
With the introduction of different ways to earn BrightBEANS and creative ways to put them to use, BrightBEANS is predicted to see many updates and growth. Make sure you’re the early bird that joins the program to reap exciting rewards in the future.
