“I bought three boxes for my daughter: 1K for toys she wants now, 3K for when she hits her teens, and 5K for her first car. She stopped asking me to buy her things. She asks how she can earn money instead!” – Amanda R., Sydney

How It Works

How It Works (Simple As 1-2-3)

Step 1: Pick Your Goal
Your child chooses their savings target - $1K, $3K, $5K or $10K.

Step 2: Drop Money In
Every time they get pocket money, birthday cash, or earn from chores - it goes in the box.

Step 3: Cross It Off
They cross off the matching number on the tracker. Watching those numbers disappear = instant dopamine hit that makes them want to save more.

That's it. No apps. No complexity. Just a simple system that makes saving visible, tangible, and rewarding.

4.8/5 based on 1,642 ratings.

9 out of 10 financial planners recommend physical money boxes for teaching kids about money in 2025.

A money box teaches kids about saving in ways that apps and digital banking never could.

You don't need to lecture them about money or wait until they're older to start.

You just need the right tool. We'll show you why this simple gift keeps getting mentioned in every parent forum.

  • "No More Tantrums"

    "My 6-year-old used to melt down every time I said 'no' to a toy. I bought this box thinking it might help a little. She stopped asking me to buy things and started asking how she could earn money instead. Last week at the toy store, SHE told ME we should save the money. It completely rewired how she thinks about money."

    Fiona White

  • "Teaching What Schools Don't"

    "Schools don't teach financial literacy. I wasn't going to let my kid turn 18 clueless about money like I did. This box gave him something tangible to work toward. He's 6 and already understands earning, saving, and goal-setting. Filling his 1K box. I'm teaching him what my parents never taught me."

    Mike Anderson

    - Sydney, Australia
  • "Stopped the 'I Want' Phase"

    "My 9-year-old thought money grew on trees. Every store trip was 'I want this, I want that.' Got her this savings box and told her she could buy whatever she wants - with HER money. Took 2 weeks for it to click. Now she evaluates every purchase. 'Is this worth my savings?' She's saved $520 in 5 months and hasn't asked me to buy her anything since week three. "

Watch pocket money turn into proper savings.

This gift uses Kakeibo, a clever Japanese method that makes saving feel like a game kids actually want to play.

They simply cross off each number when they add coins or notes to their money box - turning "boring saving" into a challenge they're obsessed with completing.

Before you know it, they're racing to cross off the next number and begging to do extra chores for more saving opportunities.

This works even for kids who've blown through birthday money in weeks before.

Give the gift that rewires how kids think about money.

This clever money box method tricks young minds into actually wanting to save.

Watch your little impulse buyer transform when they realize saving for something big feels better than wasting money on stuff that breaks in two days.

Start them now, or they'll be teenagers wondering where all their money went - just like adults do.

Your Brain's Hidden Money-Saving Power

When you cross out numbers, kids' brain experiences a powerful dopamine reward response.

Seeing their savings physically accumulate triggers reward centers in your brain that digital numbers on a screen simply cannot activate.

That's why our customers save more in the first couple of months than they managed to accumulate in the previous several years of digital banking.

We call it kousely Magic.

PS! Don't fall for cheap knockoffs!

Bought one for each of us so the whole family can save together and everybody has their own coloured box (me, my husband and kids) the colours are so cute and the quality is really good. We’re all excited to see who finishes theirs first 🥰👍

Using it helped me developed regular saving habits , started putting aside small amounts of money wherever I could and small time those contributions add up , even small amount can help achieve financial goals and create a sense of security.

I was a bit sceptical but thought it was worth trying. I love it. Crossing off those numbers is so satisfying. It really does make you want to save more money to put in the box. Such a simple yet genius idea.

Store owner replied: Hey Cate! Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️ Just a quick note - please make sure to peel off the protective film from both sides of the transparent cover. Once removed, the cover will be completely clear and the numbers will be easy to see! 🙏

Customer photo review of kousely™ Money Box Japanese Method

Great invention and after a few weeks, I've already managed to save a couple hundred dollars! If that money was sitting in my bank account savings, I know my temptation would have gotten the better of me and the money would be spent. Love this money box and the psychology behind it :)

Great way to start saving. It's exciting to cross of dollar amounts. Can't wait until it starts looking busy with all the crosses. I now use cash to buy products so I can save what's left over.

Customer photo review of kousely™ Piggy Bank Japanese Method

Saw these money boxes online and thought it would be a great stocking filler for Christmas. Got a $10,000 one for my husband and I to use for next family holiday and $1000 boxes for my boys (13 & 10) I wanted them to start to think about how they spend their money. They get cash gifts from Grandparents etc.. and just blow it on cheap tat. So the box makes them think do I need what I’m about to buy or do I put the money in the money box instead. 2 weeks in and my youngest has already saved $100. My husband and I have saved $500. Would highly recommend if you need to retrain your mindset around spontaneous spending!

I’ve only just started putting money in. I’m happy with the different amount options. The clear plastic sheet which covers the numbers can be wiped clean and money box can be reused. Very easy to assemble also. I would definitely recommend.

I have been using the 10k piggy bank for a couple of weeks now. I have already seen an improvement in my savings. I always have spare cash laying around, so using this method has given me a clear direction on saving more wisely and I have already saved hundreds.

Customer photo review of kousely™ Safe Box That Looks Like a Book

Exactly what I was looking for. We will be using this on our 3 week trip in New Zealand to keep items safe while we hike and travel around. Looks and feels like a book but when you open the cover the metal lock box is inside. its large enough to hold whatever we might need to.

Customer photo review of kousely™ 2.0 PRO Piggy Bank Japanese Method

Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you know that this box has worked wonders for me (no I was not paid to write this). Its all mental, but its crazy how a box can change your thinking, you know when you have some money in your wallet and you think "oh I can use it on that or blah blah", then now the only thing that comes to your mind is that box hahaha.

I really like that savings are not too easy to access, keeps me more motivated and i don't have the impulse to take the money out. It's already my 2nd piggy bank from kousely, the first one was the one you have to assembly. i like that this one is in 1 piece. love it!

We are saving for a boat so the goal is to fill this up 2x (20k) and start looking. I specifically like that I can't see the money. Out of sight, out of mind and all that.

Got questions?

Why saving cash?

29-year-old Sydney comedian went full cash in 2024:

“My savings have gone through the roof compared to what they usually are because I switched back to cash in January,” he said.

His rent, phone bill, and streaming services are still directly debited from his bank account but otherwise, he is in a cash withdrawal era.

“There’s something very psychological about handing over a $50 note and only getting back $15 in change.

The physical transaction tells my brain I’ve just spent money. When you tap your card, it’s easy to forget how much you’re actually spending,” he told news.com.au.

“Your financial literacy just improves so much because you’re consciously purchasing things. It is awkward, to begin with, and you feel like such a grandma handing cash over”.

Scientific studies:

Global researchers tracked 808 people with 2,619 savings goals and discovered that those with cash saved 37,4% more money over time.

People using cash spent approximately $22 on average, while those using digital methods spent $112 - a 409% increase.

What is it made of?

Our premium wooden money box with a built-in counter is crafted from high-quality wood, ensuring safety and environmental friendliness.

Please note that it comes pre-assembled to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.

Dimensions: 20 * 14.5 * 7.6cm

How do I put it together?

Firstly assemble the Cashbox with the super simple tutorial provided in the package & then peel the cover from the transparent panel & attach it to the front of the Cashbox so you can use it as many times as you'd like.

How do I use it?

To reach your chosen goal, simply drop your spare change in the box and mark the amount off.

Once you've checked off all the boxes, you've achieved your savings goal! Congratulations!

Why does the transparent cover look frosted, and how can I fix it?

The frosted look might be due to protective covers on both sides of the sheet. If you remove both covers, the plastic should appear clear, making it easier to find and cross off the numbers.

Please note that we don’t include tapes or adhesives for the transparent cover because we leave it up to the customers to attach it using their preferred method. 

This approach minimizes the risk of damage during transit, as pre-applied adhesives might not hold securely through shipping. 

Feel free to use double-sided tape or a small amount of glue, or if you prefer, simply place the piggy on its back so that the transparent cover faces upward.

Do you offer a money back guarantee?

Yes, we offer a full 90 day money back guarantee. Love it or pay nothing! 

Will there be any additional fees for shipping my order?

No!
