In today’s fast-moving digital world, managing money isn’t just about cash and cheques. It’s about knowing your way around online banking, spotting scams, comparing deals, and feeling confident using digital tools to stay financially independent. This is where financial digital literacy comes in.
Financial digital literacy means having the skills and confidence to use digital tools to manage your money. It’s about more than knowing how to use technology – it’s about being able to:
These are everyday tasks that can help you stay in control of your finances, save money, and avoid unnecessary debt.
For many people aged 55 and over, managing money has changed a lot in recent years. Banks have moved online, utility companies prefer digital billing, and more services than ever are just a click away. While this shift can be convenient, it can also be overwhelming if you haven’t had the chance to learn these skills.
However, learning to manage money online doesn’t just help you pay bills on time. It also helps you to:
In short, digital skills give you more control, more freedom, and more peace of mind.
If you’ve heard an older adult say:
… you’re not alone. Many people feel unsure at first. That’s why support and simple, hands-on guidance make such a difference.
At Community Clicks, we work with older adults to help build confidence in using online financial tools. Our sessions are friendly, practical, and tailored to our learners, and incorporate Foundation and Essential Digital Skills for Life as set out by the Department for Education. We believe learning digital skills should be empowering, not stressful.
When you can check your bank balance in real time, it’s easier to budget. By getting alerts for direct debits or bills, it’s easier to avoid surprises. Being able to compare prices for electricity, broadband or insurance, you’re more likely to save money. And when you know how to spot a scam, you’re less likely to lose it.
Being able to search for information online and ask for help from charities like StepChange helps manage budgets and money better.
These are real, everyday ways digital skills can protect you from falling into financial difficulty.
Everyone deserves to feel secure and confident managing their money. Digital literacy isn’t about becoming a tech expert – it’s about knowing enough to stay independent, safe, and informed.
Whether older people want to check their pension, pay a bill, understand their benefits or just understand their statements a bit better – learning financial digital skills is a smart, empowering step.
And we’re here to help.
