What is Automated Saving?
Automated savings is a monthly, biweekly, or weekly transfer to your saving account. This transfer is automatic, so no manual transfer is necessary. You don’t even have to think about it – automated savings will help your savings account grow on its own.
One way to start an automated savings habit is by creating an automatic transfer from one account to your designated savings account. Another option to automatically build your savings is to have a certain percentage of each paycheck go into a savings account.
