Planning a summer holiday can be a fun family activity however when you’re short of money, it can seem that those long summer evenings are nothing but a pipe dream, but is there anything you can do about it?
The answer is yes, it’s never too late to start saving and if you’re wanting to save towards paying for your next holiday or even just your holiday expenses then start now. Wave Community Bank have created a Goal Savings Account called Wave Save so you can create your own savings goal and keep your money in a separate pot so that you’re not tempted to spend it. It’s really simple to use and you can do manage it all on the Mobile Banking App – just create your goal and transfer money into your savings account each week or month. We’ve even created a video to show you how easy it is!
If you haven’t got enough money in your savings account to book your next holiday then you may choose to apply for an Ethical Saver Loan. They are ethical because our loans are designed to help you get out of debt and to save so instead of just paying off the interest each month, you will be paying off your loan and putting some money away into your savings account so when you have paid off your loan, you will have a savings pot that you can use towards your next holiday.
If you do need help with budgeting to help save up for your next holiday then we have created a Wave Money Guide to help you make the most of your money including helping to pay off any debts you may have. Download the Wave Money Guide here.
Don’t forget about Engage too – it’s a prepaid visa card so you can earn rewards when you shop!
However, you choose to pay for your next holiday Wave Community Bank are here to help and will continue to serve our members from East Sussex, Brighton or Hove, Kent & Medway so if you live or work in any of these areas then you can join your local credit union to enjoy an ethical way to banking.
