Booster Savvy customers earn over $2 million in returns

Written by Booster | March 26, 2026

Booster Savvy customers have now earned more than $2 million in returns. Booster Savvy is a different kind of investment account – where effortless savings meet everyday spending. You use Savvy with its debit card and app. The balance in your Savvy account earns you returns and smart tools in the app help you save automatically as part of everyday life.

As of March 2026, customer returns surpassed $2 million.

Instead of separating spending, saving and investing, Savvy helps kiwis build better money habits as part of everyday life.

Booster Savvy is designed so customers can simply spend, simply save, and simply earn, effortlessly all in one place.

Savvy includes tools that support these everyday habits: Stacks help organise money for bills and savings, while Boost rounds up purchases to help customers save as they spend. Sweep also moves unspent money into savings automatically, making it easier to build savings over time.

So far, thousands of Savvy customers have used Boost to save over $260,000, while more than $300,000 has been put aside using Sweep.

How Booster Savvy works for you

Booster Savvy is designed to combine everyday payments with tools that help people save effortlessly.

Customers can use a Savvy debit card for day-to-day purchases while earning returns on the balance held in their account. Returns are calculated daily and paid monthly.

Savings, boosted.

The Savvy app includes automated savings tools designed to help customers build savings habits over time, including:

  • Boost – rounds up purchases and saves the difference
  • Sweep – moves unspent money into savings goals
  • Spending insights – helps track everyday spending

This combination allows customers to manage everyday spending while meaningfully building savings.

Helping customers save in small, consistent ways

Savvy includes simple tools designed to help customers build savings without needing to think about it.

The Boost feature automatically rounds up purchases made with the Savvy debit card and saves the difference. Small actions add up. Saving a few cents from each purchase or moving leftover cash into a goal can quietly build meaningful savings over time.

Savvy customers have saved over $260,000 so far using Boost.

The Sweep feature allows customers to move unspent money into savings goals automatically, helping customers put aside funds that might otherwise remain in their everyday Stack and be inadvertently spent.

To date, customers have moved over $300,000 into savings using Sweep.

Growing use of Booster Savvy

Since launching, Booster Savvy has attracted thousands of customers who are using the account to manage everyday payments while working toward their savings goals.

Savvy has also received recognition across several financial and technology industry awards, including:
