Three Ways to Save with Worthy Bonds

What are the ways to tuck away money in Worthy Bonds

For those of you who aren't familiar, worthy bonds offer 3 different ways to tuck money away and you can engage them right from your account's portfolio page. 


  1. "Recurring Investment" option which you can schedule investments monthly, daily or weekly. 
  2. "Round Ups" feature which allows our members to "round-up" the spare change from their daily  purchases and then automatically buy a bond when their spare change reaches $10. As you keep spending, the app rounds off your purchases to the nearest whole number. The difference between this amount and the actual purchase amount is invested in Worthy Bonds. Here is a practical example of how it works. Suppose you purchase a coffee for $1.50 Worthy Bonds will track the change (that is $0.50). Suppose that you buy fast food the next day for $7.20. The Worthy Bonds app will again collect the change, which is $0.80. Worthy will keep collecting change until it reaches $10. It will then purchase a $10 bond with 5% interest and 3-year maturity but you can withdraw it anytime. 
  3. "Purchase bonds" manually by selecting our "Buy Bonds" feature. You can buy Worthy Bonds online via the free app. The app is available for both iOS and Android. It is easy to use, and has an intuitive interface. Once you create an account with the app, you can link your credit or debit card to this account.
