    Savings Pod

    Your personal financial growth feature. Set a schedule once, and the same insignificant amount moves into your pod automatically — like a subscription to your own future.

    In one sentence

    A Savings Pod is a Squirrelll.ing feature that automatically sets aside one fixed, insignificant regional amount on a daily or weekly schedule, tracks your progress towards milestones, and lets you withdraw the balance at any time for a 3% platform fee, capped at $20 maximum.

    How it works, step by step

    1. 01

      Choose your rhythm

      You set the schedule on your Savings Pod — either daily or weekly. Your choice, changed whenever you like.

    2. 02

      We deposit automatically

      We deposit the insignificant fixed amount for your region on schedule, like a subscription. Nothing to remember, nothing to decide each time.

    3. 03

      Watch it grow

      Track your progress in the app and celebrate milestones as your pod fills up week after week.

    4. 04

      Withdraw whenever

      Take out the gathered amount at any time. Only a 3% platform fee, capped at $20 maximum, is charged — no lock-in, no penalties.

    Saving that you never have to think about

    Most saving plans fail because they ask for a decision. Every week you have to remember, choose an amount, and resist spending it instead.

    A Savings Pod removes the decision entirely. One setup, then the amount is small enough that it never competes with anything you actually want to buy.

    Why insignificant amounts work

    The amount is calibrated to your region's currency so it stays genuinely negligible — the kind of sum that disappears in a day without leaving a trace.

    But negligible sums repeated hundreds of times become something real. That's the whole idea of Squirrellling: financial progress that happens in the background of your life, not in the foreground of your attention.

    A worked example

    Say your regional amount is $0.50 and you choose a daily schedule. That is $15 a month and about $182 a year — money you never consciously set aside.

    On a weekly schedule at the same amount, the pod builds more slowly but the habit is identical: automatic, invisible, and always yours to withdraw.

    How it fits with the rest of Squirrelll.ing

    Savings Pod is the personal layer. The Daily Pool is the community layer, where your contribution reaches someone else in your region. The Impact Fund is the giving layer, sending the same amount to organisations you choose. Run one, two, or all three.

    Frequently asked questions

    How much does a Savings Pod cost?
    There are no subscriptions and no upfront fees. You only pay when the platform has worked for you: a 3% platform fee on the amount you withdraw, capped at $20 maximum. You can quit and withdraw anytime.
    Can I change my schedule later?
    Yes. You can switch between daily and weekly whenever you like.
    Can I withdraw before reaching a milestone?
    Yes. Your balance is available at any time — milestones are motivation, not a lock.
    How much is deposited each time?
    The insignificant fixed amount set for your region, so it stays negligible in your local currency.
    Is a Savings Pod an investment?
    No. It is a simple automated set-aside. There is no market exposure and no promised return — just the money you put in, gathered up.
    Can I run a Savings Pod alongside the Daily Pool?
    Yes. The three features are independent, so you can run any combination of Savings Pod, Daily Pool and Impact Fund.
