Today, up to 90M working people in the US don’t have $500 for an emergency. Clearly the current methods to encourage savings for the working poor have failed. At Payactiv we have reimagined the concept of savings in a mobile app. Our approach changes the status quo and makes savings simple, practical and achievable. Instead of using the percent of income approach for savings a more practical ‘units of time approach’ is used. People who found it impossible to save $500 were able to start saving without any training.
Earnings are calculated in units of time. Payactiv’s savings app now allows employees to think of saving in the same way. For instance, they can allocate an hour a day towards an upcoming expense or towards a savings goal like rent, childcare, vacation, or emergency fund. Our software starts allocating the funds as a deduction directly from payroll, enabling you to save before you spend!
Allocate minutes and hours to save every day or every pay period and Payactiv starts allocating funds towards that goal. Users set their own categories, goals, and bank accounts where the funds should be transferred.
MINUTES ALLOCATED | PAY RATE | DAYS TO GOAL | SAVINGS |
15 minutes per day | $20 | 80 | $400 |
30 minutes per day | $20 | 40 | $400 |
60 minutes per day | $20 | 20 | $400 |
