My Money Box
My Money Box enables you to save as you earn and repay loans directly from your wages every payday. My Money Box savings are kept in Boom Community Bank and are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
Watch a short video on the Boom Community Bank YouTube channel explaining how the service works.
The benefits of My Money Box are:
- Payroll deduction is one of the easiest ways to save
- Saving can alleviate money worries and stress
- Your savings could earn dividends
- Easy Access to your money through your online account
- If you do not have a perfect credit history, you could still avoid high-interest lenders
- Loans can be repaid confidentially, directly from your pay, for anything from debt consolidation to home improvements.
