Rainy Day Fund

Introducing the Rainy Day Fund

Between debt, bills, rising costs of living, and inflation, employees are left struggling to build a financial cushion. 43% of Americans can't cover a $1,000 emergency, and traditional savings tools don't make it easy.

The Rainy Day Fund changes that. Built directly into Rain, it lets your employees set a target and actually hit it — automatically, from every paycheck, with no extra apps or effort required.

Problem

One unexpected expense can spiral into debt, financial stress, and distraction at work.

24% of Americans have no savings at all.

60% are uncomfortable with their current savings levels.

Around 29% of Americans currently hold more credit card debt than they have in emergency savings.

Solution

Simple, low-cost alternative to traditional banking

The Rainy Day Fund gives employees a dedicated place to set money aside — directly inside their Rain Bank Account.

  • No new account
  • No extra sign-up
  • No fees*

Just a simple, automatic habit that builds a financial cushion over time.

How it works

Step 1: Funds arrive in Rain Bank Account

Users add money via EWA, external accounts, or direct deposit.

Step 2: Balance is set aside


Users choose a portion of their Rain Bank Account balance to set aside with one tap.

Step 3: Rainy Day Fund grows

Balance grows over time, and is kept separate from their Rain Debit Card spending balance.
