The Odyssey platform supports numerous state programs, including Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) and microgrant programs. It works with states to help them implement a turnkey solution for these programs and handles all aspects of the program, from marketing and applications to payments and customer support. Its passionate team of developers, e-commerce and finance leaders, customer success experts, and former educators is dedicated to building tech solutions that empower parents to choose the best education for their children.
