Peak Money - Savings Goals Software

Can’t say enough positive things about Peak. What I maybe like most is the intentionality it places around saving. “Saving” is a pretty loaded buzzword. People tell you that you should be saving your money, etc, but, to me, it’s always felt like a fairly vague term. Saving for what exactly?? When you’re saving just to say you’re saving, that’s when it gets easy to justify the 4 dollar coffee or the 7 dollar beer. Because you’re not saving for anything tangible or specific, so it doesn’t feel real. With Peak, it’s the exact opposite. You set specific savings goals for yourself (a vacation, an item you’ve always wanted, an engagement ring, whatever) and you can very clearly track your progress in reaching those goals. Not to mention, it’s probably the most beautifully designed money saving app on the market. Period. All in all, very happy with Peak and would highly recommend.

This app will help you save money. It’s a simple, but refreshingly well-made app that brings compelling visuals to your savings goals. I downloaded Peak on a whim, but I’m so happy I did. I check Peak everyday, even just to glance at my mountains for a moment. You can customize each peak for a savings goal in mind; and then you decide whether you want to save automatically (weekly, monthly, etc.) or deposit funds at your own pace. You can have meticulous control over how you save - or you can let Peak do the savings for you. The best part is you can customize how much and how often you want saved for each peak. I’ve already decided I’ll use Peak to help save each year for Christmas. Y’all this app is great in every way. It greets you with an inspiring message every time you open it. Peak also has a breathing exercise, so you can save and find your center all at the same time. The people behind this app are amazing and they really care about their users. They were in the fitness world and have made Peak their passion project. In other words, they care about you and are serious about helping you save. I’ve looked for money saving apps in the past, and have tried many. Peak is leaps and bounds ahead of them all.

This is such a great app. What it’s really good for is micro savings goals. At first I didn’t know exactly how it could be helpful for my wife and I because we have a joint checking account that we pay everything out of and we didn’t want to siphon off money all the time to these other accounts, and we also don’t have all the same savings goals. Then we decided to set up our own personal checking accounts and give ourself an “allowance” every month in those accounts. Now we both have peak connected to our own accounts and it’s really helping us control our individual discretionary spending. I am saving for a golf trip next year and have realized I better stop buying a cup of coffee every morning and things like that. Really super helpful accountability. Five stars.
