Fulfilling its pledge to donate all proceeds from book sales, as committed at the time of publication in May
₩300 million from the first round of sales donated to financially marginalized groups, with plans for ongoing contributions

Viva Republica, the operator of the financial super app "Toss,” announced that it has donated ₩300 million in proceeds from its book The Money Book: Guide to Shape Your Future (The Money Book), published in May.

The Money Book is a collection of articles from Toss’ in-app content service, “Today’s Money Tip,” and its brand media platform, “Toss Feed.” Since its release in May, the book has topped the Kyobo Bookstore bestseller list and surpassed its 20th print run in just six months. At the time of launch, Toss committed to donating all proceeds to financially marginalized groups. In line with this pledge, the first round of donations, totaling ₩300 million, has been allocated to individuals with borderline intellectual functioning, seniors, and people with visual impairments.
Of the proceeds, ₩70 million was donated to the Seoul Borderline Intellectual Functioning Continuing Education Support Center to support young adults with borderline intellectual functioning who require specialized assistance. The funds have been used to set up a counseling support space and purchase educational equipment to improve social adaptability. Additionally, ₩30 million was donated to Youth Mungan Social Cooperative, which will be used to transform its Jeongneung and Ewha Womans University restaurants into inclusive workplaces that help young adults with borderline intellectual functioning engage in social participation.
Additionally, ₩100 million was donated to the Senior Financial Education Council. This funding will be used for retirement financial education and fraud prevention programs conducted at senior welfare centers nationwide. Toss sees this initiative as crucial in improving financial literacy among seniors and preventing financial scams.
Lastly, ₩100 million was donated to the Korea Welfare Foundation for the Visually Handicapped. The funds will support digital financial education programs for visually impaired individuals and the production and distribution of an audiobook and braille version of The Money Book. These accessibility efforts aim to enhance financial independence for individuals navigating a digital finance landscape.
In addition to monetary donations, Toss has also donated books. Prior to the book’s sale, 700 copies were distributed to young adults participating in the Ministry of Employment and Labor’s “Youth Challenge Support Program” for job-seeking disengaged youth and to participants in the Toss CX, a customer experience subsidiary, financial literacy training course. Furthermore, 5,000 copies of The Money Book were donated to the Korea Youth Foundation and distributed at the Youth Day event to help young adults gain practical financial knowledge for achieving financial independence.
“We are delighted that
The Money Book
, which began as a guide to smart financial living, has now extended its impact through these donations,” a Toss representative said. “We hope that these donations will serve as a meaningful starting point for greater social change by providing tailored support where it is needed most.”
