Spending directly from Pots

Yeah! So this has been requested before. The moderators also highlighted that they think pots are physically piggy banks.

However, that’s not how I, and it seems many others, use the feature.

I keep depositing a predictable amount of money into a pot called “car repairs” and when it’s time to service the car I pay from this pot. Now the paying part is very cumbersome, I have to first withdraw from the pot which now costs 2 hours.

Another example is if I have a medical account, so if a family member is ill, I may need to make several small payments over, say, 72 hours. It’s again cumbersome to pay from the main savings account and then calculate manually and withdraw from the pot.

Ideally, one should be able to add a pot as a linked account. So while scanning a QR code I have an option to pay.

This feature I do believe forces fiscal discipline like nothing else if the team can realize it. Maybe another type of pot (not backed by FD necessarily, the idea is not earning a return but keeping expense accounts segregated.

Overall a great app and cheers to the team.

I saw that on the pots page, there is a coming soon, “Pots for spending” and the earlier pots are now called, “Pots for saving”. Hope this is it. Kudos to team!

You mean this is already implemented? I just realised, my 3 pots that I was saving every month suddenly disappeared! And the chat supply (AI based) didn’t help an inch :disappointed_face:

For it my pots are still there, they are called “pots for saving”. There is some other feature called, “pots for spending” that says coming soon.

So, no not already implemented as of today 30/Aug.

I am facing following problems with the Pot:-

  1. I tried sending UPI request on my pot UPI ID but on opening Jupiter App couldn’t find any pending request.

  2. From my another bank account I had sent ₹1 as a test traction on Pot UPI ID but the transaction failed.

Unable to use it. Here is what I’m facing:

Home Screen > View All Pots > Set up PIN & UPI > Get OTP > Fill OTP > PIN Set Failed (This can happen due to technical issue. You can try again after some time).

  • Tried several times over one week later still same issue.
  • OTP entered automatically and also manual both ways doesn’t work.

APP Version: 3.2.9

Platform: iOS 26.0.1

@holysmoke Hello! :waving_hand:
We’d need a few more details to get this checked, sending you a DM :envelope:

I’m also facing the same issue, not able to set up the PIN for POTS. When I enter the OTP it says it’s wrong even though it’s correct, and if I request a resend OTP it says that limit has been exceeded.

Hello guys, I tried paying my CC bill from a pot and the option did not show up while it worked for my internet bill!

Is this expected?
