  • Periodic transfers

Periodic transfers are very handy to an external IBAN. But when you transfer to your own (bunq) accounts it feels a bit limited.

To explain my scenario; Personally i given me a weekly budget and account called groceries. What i do now is split up my income, to a fixed number a month to a savings account (lets call it living). And every week x amount transfers from living to groceries. This works. But it could be way better if;

It would great if its possible to do a periodic transfer to your own account not by a fixed amount, but with a ceiling. So you can say fill this account every week up to amount x, instead of blindly adding amount x.

The same with splitting (verdelen) your income. I would to fill my saving accounts to a specific amount, and not put blindly that amount. So the rest that gets left over after filling my savings account. This also solves the issue when you employee pays out twice in a month by mistake and everything get split up to everywhere. As all accounts are already filled and transferred to your "rest" account.

    Totally agree with you, it would be nice if bunq implements this feature.
    However as a workaround, if you use iOS, you can use shortcuts to create this yourself.
