Introducing Penny Collectables: A little more magic in your money planning

Managing your money is serious business. But who says every part of it has to be?

Four collectible Penny quokkas showcase their unique personalities in a magical, pastel-coloured scene filled with warm golden light, playful sparkles and charming details.

At PennyGo, we believe feeling more confident about your money shouldn't mean staring at spreadsheets, worrying about every dollar or turning your everyday finances into another chore.

That's why we've introduced something a little different.

Meet Penny's Collection — a growing collection of animated Pennys to discover, collect and enjoy as you use PennyGo.

It's our way of bringing a little personality, a few surprises and some well-earned smiles to your money-planning experience.

A different Penny for every month

You already know Penny, our friendly little quokka who's always happy to lend a paw.

Well, it turns out Penny has quite the wardrobe. And a few hidden talents.

Every month brings a different Penny to collect, simply by opening PennyGo during that month.

You might find her tangled in Christmas lights, enjoying a cosy hot chocolate, chasing a butterfly or showing off her dance moves.

Each one has its own personality and little animated adventure.

And once you've collected a Penny, she's yours to keep. Miss a month? Don't worry — you can collect her when that month comes around again next year.

Some Pennys are a little harder to find

Not every Penny arrives with the calendar.

There are also Special Pennys, waiting to be discovered through different experiences and milestones around PennyGo.

Some celebrate the things you've achieved. Others reward curiosity and exploring what PennyGo has to offer.

And a few might require you to think a little differently.

We won't give away all their secrets. After all, discovering them is part of the fun.

Let's just say there's more to Penny than meets the eye.

Your collection, your loading screen

Collecting Pennys isn't just about filling up a gallery.

You can choose one of your collected Pennys to keep you company whenever PennyGo loads.

Have a favourite? Pick her.

Like surprises? Choose Surprise me, and PennyGo will randomly select from the animations you've collected.

Or choose This month's Penny to celebrate the season with whichever monthly Penny you've discovered.

And if you prefer things simple, you can always stick with the classic PennyGo logo.

It's entirely up to you.

A little celebration for the little things

PennyGo is built to help you plan ahead, understand what's coming and feel more in control of your money.

That remains our focus.

But we also believe the experience should feel welcoming, encouraging and occasionally a little playful.

Penny's Collection isn't about spending more money or competing with anyone else. It's about discovering something enjoyable along the way.

Sometimes that's as simple as opening the app and finding Penny dressed for the occasion.

Sometimes it's celebrating a milestone.

And sometimes, it's uncovering a little secret you didn't know was there.

How many Pennys can you discover?

Your collection lives inside Ask Penny, where you can see which characters you've collected, discover how to unlock others and choose who appears on your loading screen.

You'll also find a rather extraordinary Penny waiting for those who build up their collection.

But we wouldn't want to spoil the surprise.
