How Savings Challenges work
Have you ever tried to work towards a money goal and realized that somehow, you always end up spending that money? Yup, the chances are we’ve all experienced this at some point or the other. Which is where savings challenges come in.
Money challenges are a way to slowly but strategically meet your goal while competing for the top spot on the leaderboard! Savings challenges aim to help the members of the challenges save a certain amount of money over a stated duration. It also has an added element of competition too and you’ll know you’re not alone in saving.
Why should you join a Savings Challenge?
There are many options open to you when it comes to saving money. But why should you opt for a Savings Challenge?
1. It’s a fun way to save. You can have personal savings plans and also be a part of a Money Challenge which adds a bit of diversity to your savings. Yup, it’s pretty fun knowing you’re achieving big things with other members.
2. You’ll know that you aren’t alone and it definitely gives you a little motivation to save those funds!
3. Everyone wants to be a winner and why not win and achieve your money goals at the same time? It’s a win-win situation.
4. Challenges are savings plans that are already structured for you so you don’t need to worry about any details to set it up.
5. It’s automated so you never have to worry about missing another savings day!

Beautiful presentation here! The entire writeup paints a great picture of what it’s like to visualise something, make calculations, commit to that thing, and strike (and I’m not even much of a sports person) — and it’s great to see (and have experienced) how Cowrywise makes the entire process easier.
