Lockn is a savings app built around one idea: goals are easier to hit when there's structure behind them. Create a pot for anything, then choose how it works. Saving solo? You're the only contributor and beneficiary. Saving with others? Invite people into a group pot with shared lock rules, so everyone contributes toward the same target and everyone can see the progress. How it works Add money to your wallet using a card or bank transfer, then contribute to any pot directly from your wallet balance. Withdraw to your linked bank account whenever you need access to your funds. Manage your payment methods in one place. Built for group saving Invite others by email. They join, see the goal, and contribute on their own schedule. Track who's in, who's pending, and how close the pot is to its target, all from a single screen. Stay informed Get real-time alerts the moment a contribution lands, a pot fills up, or a payment method changes. A full activity log tracks every transaction, with details and receipts available for each one. Secure by design Lockn uses identity verification and biometric login to keep your account and your payouts protected. Whether you're saving alone or saving with the people who matter most, Lockn gives every goal a clear structure and every dollar a place to go.
