the Week What's New

 



SmartPig

SmartyPig is a savings platform that allows you to create an online piggy bank, with a .70% interest rate. You can use it to save for specific purchases that would cost you much more if you charged them to your credit card and made only the minimum monthly payment. SmartyPig is FDIC-insured and use of this program teaches the principle of savings first.
