Overview

Savings Jar(1)  is a new feature designed to help Dashers build a financial buffer, automatically and manually, directly in their Crimson account. Instead of needing a separate app or spreadsheet, you can set aside money every time you dash or add funds whenever you’re ready.

Whether you’re preparing for bills, unexpected repairs, or future goals, Savings Jar helps you build consistency and financial stability. One dash at a time.

How It Works

  1. Choose how to save. There are two ways to grow your Savings Jar:

    • Auto-Save: Automatically save 1%, 5%, or 10% of every dash payout. 

    • Manual Transfer: Move money from your main Crimson account to your jar anytime you choose.

You can turn auto-save on or off any time, and adjust how much you save based on what works for your budget.

  1. Track your progress. You can view your Savings Jar balance, transaction history,  and your auto-save settings. 

Everything updates instantly so you always know what’s set aside vs. what’s available to spend.

  1. Repeat. Save. Adjust. Repeat.

Savings Jar is designed to be ongoing and flexible. Dashers can:

  • Continue saving automatically with each payout

  • Adjust their auto-save percentage at any time

  • Manually move funds from your main Crimson account to your Savings Jar as needed

This creates a repeatable  habit that fits naturally into a Dasher’s earning flow—helping you build a financial buffer one dash at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Savings Jar?   

Savings Jar is a feature that allows Dashers to save by setting aside a percentage of each payout. You can either automatically save a preset amount (1%, 5%, or 10%) that is set aside every time you dash or can manually transfer funds from your main Crimson account to your Savings Jar.

How does Savings Jar work?  

Savings Jar helps you set money aside automatically or manually so you can build a buffer over time. You choose how you want to save:

  1. Auto-Save:

    • Select 1%, 5%, or 10% of every dash payout.

    • That amount is automatically moved into your Savings Jar after each payout.

    • You can turn Auto-Save on/off or adjust the percentage at any time.

  2. Manual Transfers:

    • Move money from your main Crimson account to your Savings Jar whenever you want.

    • This is a great way to add extra savings when you have a bigger payout.

Your Savings Jar balance is kept separate from your Crimson Available Balance, making it easy to set money aside  while still being able to move money back if you need it. Your balance, transaction history, and settings all update instantly in the app.
