Don’t want to spend it? Lock it! Saving for a big purchase? Lock it!
The Locked Savings feature on HerVest is a type of savings plan that requires you to keep your money in your account for a certain period, known as the “lock-in period.” During this time, you cannot withdraw your money. Its purpose is to assist users in maintaining financial discipline and avoiding temptation.
Locked savings plans can help you to save for a specific goal. For instance, If you need to save a certain amount of money for a car, land or a wedding, the Locked savings plan can help you to stay on track and reach your goal on time.
