Set & Spend Budgeting

Ring-fence a monthly spending budget at payday.

Employees can set a fixed amount of their pay to be available on Aslan at payday, as well as set limits for their spending during the month. These tools make budgeting simple, maximises Roarward™ points, and make financial planning effortless.

The problem

Most people budget after the money has already moved. By then the discipline is gone and the savings goal is the first casualty.

What Aslan does

Employees set aside a fixed amount of pay onto Aslan at payday and set spending limits for the month.

How it works

  1. 1Choose an allocation from net pay at payday.
  2. 2Set monthly spending limits by the employee, for the employee.
  3. 3Everyday spend runs through the Aslan card and earns points.
  4. 4Savings and current accounts stay untouched.

Employee experience

  • Day-to-day money is separated from savings by default.
  • Spending limits are self-set, not imposed.
  • The allocated budget earns points as it is spent.

Employer experience

  • A wellbeing intervention that requires no employer funding.
  • Drives the engagement that makes the rest of the stack work.

How we treat the financial impact

Not monetised. This is a financial wellbeing and engagement capability and we present it as such.
