What is auto-grow?

Auto-grow is Blossom Save’s round up functionality, which helps you reach your savings goals with every purchase. Every time you make a purchase with your linked bank account, we round it up to the nearest $1, $2, $5 or $10 – you decide! Let's say you choose to round up your purchases to the next $1. If you spend $4.50 on your morning coffee, we'll set aside your spare $0.50.

Next, you need to decide on your multiplier. You can multiply every round up by 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or even 10x if you wish. Then, you keep spending and we keep rounding. Once a week on Wednesday, subject to a $5 minimum, we'll sweep your loose change to your Blossom Save account to help you target 5.95% p.a. returns. How good.

How do multipliers work?

If rounding up to the nearest dollar isn’t enough for you, let your round up sprout by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10x! This means that the rounded-up amount, say $0.50 left over from your morning coffee, will be multiplied by your chosen multiplier, and transferred into your Blossom account.

e.g. When you buy a coffee for $4.50, your transaction will be rounded up by $0.50. If your multiplier is 2, we’ll round up $1 for you ($0.50 x 2).

Can I link auto-grow to Blossom Save and Blossom Plus?

No, auto-grow can only be used to top-up your Blossom Save account.
