How Crew Works—Budgeting & Saving on Autopilot

how does crew work?

Automate good financial habits

Crew is an account that automatically follows your budget so you can live life.1

No more reconciling after-the-fact, waiting for balances to come through, or doing mental math at the store. Instead of relying on discipline and memory with each dollar spent, Crew puts your good decisions on autopilot.

Everything your money should be doing

Ever splurged on a vacation or concert tickets then realized some random bill like car insurance was due?

Autopilot sets aside the amount you need — whether bills come monthly or irregularly — so you can spend without worrying.

When all your savings are lumped into one pile and all your expenses haphazzardly bleed out, there is no visibility or control.

With Crew you can create pockets for things like groceries or gas then automatically fund your pockets with each deposit.

You can know exactly how much you spent at the store and not overspend when using your Crew card.

You know you should save a little from each check for a rainy, but it's not fun to remember to do it each payday or to watch your precious balance drop.

With Crew you only have to make the smart decision once, then the app handles the rest.

Pay yourself automatically and hide pocket balances you don't want to spend from.

Sure, Crew offers high-tech features, but that doesn’t mean we’ve neglected classic banking needs.

You can withdraw or deposit cash at thousands of locations, use a Crew card anywhere Mastercard is accepted, and still earn interest in an FDIC-insured, high-yield checking account.1,2,3
