Saving money is usually a tedious task that requires a high degree of self-control for many of us. Some people have one or more specific savings targets in mind and thus need to prioritize them. We propose connecting a savings box with a personal smartphone. Thus, people become motivated to keep track of their savings for multiple targets. Using a savings box capable of counting money and connecting it to an app, we believe people stick to their plans to save with higher motivation and are happier with their behavior. In this paper, we present first evidence for the success of this concept. We gathered feedback through an online user study in which participants were shown a video prototype. We propose further research directions with our SmartPiggy, to confirm the feasibility of behavioral economics in HCI.
