Sleigh Your Savings All Year Round: Start Now, Gift Later!
Transform your holiday spending stress into year-round financial confidence with a Christmas Club Savings account that lets you give generously during the holidays without sacrificing your financial goals. Learn how you can stay on budget during the holiday season by saving now.
Ease the Holiday Wallet Stress
The holidays are a time for joy, celebration, and quality moments with loved ones, but they can also bring significant financial stress. Many Americans find themselves stressed by holiday expenses, often using credit cards or emergency funds to cover gifts and seasonal celebrations. This last-minute scrambling can impact your financial plans long into the new year.
A Christmas Club Savings account is a better way to manage this. By saving throughout the year, you can avoid last-minute stress and enjoy a seamless, worry-free holiday season.
DEEPER DIVE: Holiday Budgeting Best Practices
Building Your Holiday Savings Strategy
Starting a holiday savings plan is easier than you think. Begin early and contribute regularly. These small, steady deposits will accumulate, creating a reliable fund that reduces year-end stress.
Make sure to set a realistic goal based on your typical holiday spending. If you spent $1,200 last year, saving $100 monthly beginning in January covers your budget. If starting in July, save about $200 monthly.

Smart Savings for Your Holiday Fund
Not all savings accounts are created equal, and choosing the right option can maximize your results. A Christmas Club Savings account is designed to support savings goals while encouraging consistent deposits and limiting withdrawals.
Opening a Christmas Club Savings Account at Levo Credit Union® is simple. We offer transparent terms and personalized service that helps you succeed. Our Christmas Club accounts accrue dividends that help your savings grow throughout the year.
Understanding deposit and withdrawal terms maximizes your account. Flexible deposits are allowed, but limited withdrawals protect your fund from impulsive spending.
Automating Your Gift-Giving Budget
Using the automatic recurring transfer feature in your online or mobile banking platform is a helpful tool to save for the holidays. By automating your holiday savings contributions, you won’t have to decide between saving and spending, keeping your savings on track.
Levo's online and mobile banking services make recurring transfers effortless. Through our online banking, you can schedule recurring transfers from your checking account to your Christmas Club Savings on whatever schedule works best for you.
By scheduling recurring transfers that align with your budget and goals, you can take the guesswork out of when or how much to place into your holiday savings account. If you are starting in January and want to save $1,200, one way to plan ahead is to make 12 monthly transfers of $100 each.
