KakaoPay is holding a "Keep Your Sanity Workshop" event during the Lunar New Year holiday to support users' upbeat financial lives in 2026.

The event was planned based on the newly coined term "cost of keeping your sanity", which refers to money spent for mental health such as stress relief.

From Feb. 11, KakaoPay will begin a prize-draw giveaway for a "Keep Your Sanity Kit" for users who visit its spending analysis service. The kit consists of a financial planning workbook, along with limited-edition goods to decorate office workers' desks such as a mug, T-shirt and stickers made with brand CAPO.

The spending analysis service supports an environment in which users can objectively check their financial status on their own by comparing spending by category, such as shopping, food and fixed costs, at a glance versus the previous month, based on users' financial data.

Ahead of the event, KakaoPay held an offline "Keep Your Sanity Workshop" event on Feb. 7 in Mangwon-dong, Seoul, with 8 influencers with distinctive tastes such as interior design, saunas and Dubai chewy cookies.

KakaoPay said, "We planned this event in the hope that users keep their finances solid so they can continue spending on enjoyable hobbies in the new year through the spending analysis service." It added, "We will continue to support users so they can discover the fun of finance throughout daily life through KakaoPay's own differentiated content that connects finance and everyday life, consumption and taste."
