The Goals feature may come in handy to set and successfully accomplish the savings goals such as a rainy day fund or long-awaited vacation.
What is the Goal feature?
To create a goal, you should link one of the already connected bank accounts to it. The progress is tracked by matching balance changes to the linked account (Goal account):
- every time you deposit money to the Goal account, you will increase the goal's balance;
- if you withdraw or spend money from the Goal account, you will move away from completing the goal;
NOTE: one bank account can be linked only with one savings goal.
How to create a Goal?
To create a goal, please complete the following steps:
- Go to the “Goals” section and hit “+” in the upper right corner;
- Choose a type of the "Goal";
- Enter a name and choose an Emoji to make this personal;
- Enter the target amount (optional);
- Link your goal to a bank account;

Glossary and navigation:
- Goal balance - the balance of the Goal account;
- This month's Goal progress - the net amount you saved this month. The positive sign means that you are on a way to complete the Goal. The negative sign means that the credits to this account were counted against your Goal;
- Monthly contribution - the money you set aside from In My Pocket every month to achieve towards your goal;
- Total Monthly contributions - monthly contributions will be deducted from In My Pocket every month. Set monthly contribution to zero if you don’t want it factored in your In My Pocket;
