Congrats on creating a Savings Goal! Now you can set goals and save money automatically by rounding up your payments.
By enabling Auto Save, outgoing payments made with bunq, including bunq joint and connected accounts will be rounded up to the nearest €1. The difference will then be transferred to your Savings Goal account 💰. For example, if you make a payment at Albert Heijn for €19.48, the amount of €0.52 will be transferred to your savings.
How to set up Auto Save?
Check out the steps below to see how:
- Home
- Tap on your savings goal account and go to ⚙️*Settings
- Select Auto Save
- Tap and enable Auto Save
- Select the sub-account(s) to auto save from
Keep in mind you can only enable Auto Save for one Savings Goal at a time and it can also be enabled for joint monetary accounts 👍.
If you want to exclude one or more bank accounts from Auto Save, you can check this topic.
Good to know:
- Every outgoing payment in the Events tab will show 2 amounts: the transaction amount in orange and the saved amount in grey. By tapping on the payment Event, you can see more details about the payment and about the saved amount (i.e. for which saving goal account the amount was saved). You can also see an Event showing the Daily Auto Save Total: by tapping on it, you can see from which bank account each amount was saved.
- You can select the sub-accounts you want to save from in the AutoSave settings, these can be Joint or Connect accounts as well.
- The Auto Savings can only go to one Savings Goal at the time.
- If you have a Joint account, and you have enabled auto save for that account, only the transactions made by you will auto save. You can create a Joint Savings Goal to all share together.
- All outgoing payments will AutoSave
- We currently only offer Savings accounts in EUR, which means that payments made via Local Currency accounts will not contribute to your AutoSave account.
