Como começar a poupar para o teu filho cedo (e por que o juro composto importa)

Every parent wants to set their child up for success. And while there’s no single roadmap, there is one move that always pays off in the long run: starting early.

Saving for your child’s future doesn’t have to mean huge deposits or complex plans. Thanks to compound interest, even small, consistent savings can grow into something meaningful—especially when you give them time to grow.

Compound Interest: What It Is, and Why It Matters

Compound interest is simple, but powerful. It means you earn interest not just on the money you save, but also on the interest that money earns over time.

Think of it like planting a seed. You water it regularly. It starts to grow. And before you know it, you’re not just seeing growth, you’re seeing growth on the growth. That’s compound interest. And the earlier you start, the more time it has to work in your favor.

Maximize Your Interest

You don’t need to put aside huge sums of money. In fact, it’s often the consistent, smaller deposits that add up the fastest—especially when you start young.

Set a savings goal, make a plan, and let bunq do the heavy lifting. It only takes a few taps to open a Savings Account for your child, and you can start with any amount that fits your budget.
