“We are glad that the Idram company, which emphasizes education and promotes children’s financial literacy, supported the main educational event of the year with its Idram Junior application. Idram Junior prepared many gifts for the participating children”. According to Tatevik Hovhannisyan, head of Idram’s marketing department, Idram does not only value financial literacy. “We cooperate with those companies and are on the side of the events that contribute to raise the educational level and general development of children.”
According to Sevak Shirachyan, head of marketing projects of Idram company, Idram Junior is the only financial application in Armenia for children that enables children to make contactless payments, top up their phone number and make transfers to their family members. “It is important for us that children learn to be financially literate from childhood, to be able not only to shop, but also to manage their finances. We will soon have news in the application, so follow us on our social media pages,” Sevak Shirachyan says.
