1. Allocate budget regularly to the Jago Pocket
The awesome thing about using Jago is that you can create lots of Pockets to manage various needs. In other words, each need can have its own Pocket for you to manage funds separately.
What is more important than creating lots of Jago Pockets is allocating your budget regularly. Of course, the budget portion must be right. It is just not ideal if you allocate most of your budget for shopping, while only a very small amount of the budget is allocated for savings.
To help you budget regularly and automatically, the Jago application has this feature in each Saving Pocket and Spending Pocket.
2. Spend money wisely and mindfully
Allocating a budget regularly is the first step to achieving healthy finances. Next, you still need to use the allocated budget wisely.
The monthly shopping budget for daily necessities, for example, is prioritized to buy what is really needed. Don't use up all the budget because you are tempted by super big discounts on things you don’t really need.
