As we head into the new year, many of us will be thinking about what the fresh start can bring and our goals for 2023. If your goal is to improve your financial position, we are here to help! A goal without a plan is just a wish, so here are some tips to help turn your wish to reality.
Kick start your savings by taking out a Growth Saver!
That’s exactly what it’s designed for. Get one of the highest interest rates on the market in two easy steps: open a Growth Saver, and then deposit at least $200 per month with no withdrawals. You will be eligible for bonus interest on balances up to $25,000.
For larger balances, the Bonus Saver offers similar features on balances of up to $250,000. When you need access to the money, you can withdraw at any time fee free, it only means you will forfeit the bonus interest for that month. Both accounts can be created via internet banking so you can get started today! To open a new account, log into your internet banking on a desktop, go to services, new savings account, and choose what account you’d like to open. A regular saving habit is important to develop, and could be the key to your 2023 goals. An easy way to save is by setting up an automatic transfer the day your salary is received into your savings account.
Even better, make a specific goal to save towards. The MOVE Bank app gives you great visibility over your savings! Set up a savings goal by swiping left on the home screen and watch your progress. Another aspect of a healthy financial position is having good oversight over your debts, and if necessary, you may want to consider consolidating them. MOVE Bank can help with consolidating loans as well as your credit cards#.
