The traditional kind of way that people want to solve under-saving things like that is to get people to change their behaviour, but our idea is to make saving as simple as it can be.
We want to take the behaviour you already got, spending, and turn it into saving.
We're just over 3,000 active users at the moment.
You're doing about $2.25 million of extra contributions a year at the moment.
So connect your bank account, we look at all the transactions you're doing.
You can round it up to nearest $1, $2, $5.
We calculate that and then initiate a payment from your account and put it in your or your loved one's Kiwi Savers.
So Fijoa, we're an app to help you save and invest more in a really, really frictionless way.
We don't want to put any roadblocks in saving and investing.
