It doesn't work miracles, but Goin It is a safe and efficient way to learn to better manage our finances. It is a mobile application that allows you to save easily and invest without having financial knowledge.

Retention

With this method every time you enter money into your account, goin reserves a percentage that you will have set in your account. For example, every time you deposit your payroll you can ask to retain you 10%.

Auto top up

With this option you can enter money into your Goin savings account. It's like having a savings account, but digital.
