Our story

We believe every South African child deserves a running start

The Ten Par-Cent Club began with a simple, stubborn idea: that a little saved consistently, and a little taught early, can change the shape of a life.

Why we started

Too many families run out of options right when it matters most

We kept seeing the same story. A bright learner finishes matric, and the plan for university is a loan. A young adult lands a first job, and the plan for a car is debt at a punishing rate. Good people, working hard, boxed in by choices no one taught them to make.

So we built something to change that from both ends. For parents, a clear way to save toward the big milestones. For learners, the money lessons school never gave them, while there's still time for those lessons to matter most.

The name says it plainly. Put aside ten par-cent, stay the course, and let time do the heavy lifting. Same fee, one less worry.

Our mission

Help South African families build financial futures, and give learners the education they deserve.

What we stand for

The 10% philosophy

Three beliefs shape everything we do, with parents and in the classroom.

01

Start small, start now

You don't need a big income to build a future. You need a habit. Ten percent, set aside every month, beats a fortune you never begin.

02

Plain language, always

Money is not meant to be confusing. We explain it the way you'd explain it to a friend: no jargon, no lectures, no fine print you can't follow.

03

Teach it early

The best time to learn about money is before you have to make big decisions with it. That's why our school talks are free, and start in Grade 8.

Two audiences, one purpose

What we offer

For parents

Saving strategies that fit real life

We help you build a simple, achievable plan toward the milestones that matter: tertiary fees, a first car, a home deposit. So your child can reach them without starting adult life in debt.
