Save More Without Thinking: Introducing SaveUp from Peoples Bank of Alabama


Save Up Blog

We all know saving money is important — but finding the discipline to do it consistently? That’s another story. Life gets busy, budgets get tight, and saving often gets pushed to the back burner.

That’s exactly why Peoples Bank of Alabama created SaveUp — a smarter, simpler way to save that works quietly in the background every single day.


What Is SaveUp?

SaveUp is an automatic round-up savings program tied directly to your debit card. Every time you make a purchase, the transaction is rounded up to the nearest dollar — and your change is automatically transferred to your designated savings or checking account at the end of each day.

Grab a coffee for $3.75? SaveUp moves $0.25 to your savings. Fill up your gas tank for $42.11? There goes another $0.89 — straight into your future.

It’s effortless. It’s automatic. And it adds up faster than you’d think.


Why You’ll Love It

  • 💳 Works with your everyday spending — no extra steps, no apps to manage
  • 🔒 No overdraft risk — if your balance is too low, the transfer simply skips that day
  • You’re always in control — cancel anytime by visiting a branch or giving us a call


What You Need to Get Started

Enrollment is simple. You’ll need:

  • At least one active checking account with an associated debit card
  • A designated savings or checking account that you own to receive your daily round-up transfers


Please note: IRA (Individual Retirement Account), CD (Certificate of Deposit), and Christmas Club accounts are not eligible as designated SaveUp accounts.

A few other things to keep in mind:

  • If multiple debit cards are linked to your checking account, only enrolled cards will trigger round-ups
  • If you receive a new debit card number, your new card will need to be re-enrolled in the program


How to Enroll

  • Visit any Peoples Bank of Alabama branch or Call Customer Support at 877.788.0288
