Those few fragments left over at the end of a purchase feel trivial—until they add up. “Round-up” saving turns every transaction into a micro-investment. Before you know it, your spare change funds real growth.

How It Works

Automatic Rounding

Each time you pay ₦1,250, your app rounds to ₦1,300 and sweeps the extra ₦50 into savings.

Low-Pain Habit

You never miss the small amounts—but over weeks and months, they compound.

Steps to Get Started

Set Up Round-Up in Reapvest

  • Link your payment card.
  • Toggle “Round-Up Savings.”
  • Choose rounding increment (₦100, ₦500).
  • Monitor Your “Change Jar”

Review weekly: see how small bits become meaningful balances.

Allocate to Goals

Direct round-ups toward an emergency cushion or agr-investment fund.

Why It Works

Behavioral Ease: No willpower needed—savings happens without thought.

Psychological Boost: Watching “invisible” funds grow builds confidence.
