Spiral's newly introduced Savings Center platform is a digital banking solution designed to help financial institutions address two critical challenges — consumers' growing need for automated savings tools and banks' urgency to attract and retain deposits in a competitive market. This launch comes at a time when national savings rates remain alarmingly low, with research indicating nearly 20% of Americans lack emergency savings entirely.
The fintech's Savings Center provides a suite of gamified and personalized savings features, including automatic transfers, round-up mechanisms, and goal tracking. All of these are integrated directly into existing banking apps.
Early adopters of Spiral's solution — including West Shore Bank and Regent Bank — report that the platform helps differentiate their digital offerings while driving measurable improvements in customer deposit behavior, with data showing 16% increases in monthly deposits and 31% growth in card transaction volume among users.
