The new set-and-forget savings feature will allow the customers to set definite practices to save where the funds will be transferred from the customer’s Orange Everyday into their Savings Maximiser every time after completing a particular activity.

“Everyday Round Up enables ING customers to round up their loose change, from card purchases, into a savings account.”

The service required the bank to open its APIs to a third party, where ING, with the permission of its customers, provided IFTTT limited access to some of ING’s technology to create the experiences.

FTTT CEO Linden Tibbets said: “We’re on a mission to build a more compatible world for everyone, and we’re thrilled to welcome ING to the IFTTT platform.

“ING’s customers now have the ability to connect their everyday banking to 600 apps and devices in ways that matter most to them. Saving money couldn’t be more fun or easy!”
