Penny Saving Challenge using Starling Bank, Lambda and Node

I came across a money-saving Challenge called the ‘1p Challenge’. Basically you save an amount of money based on the day number in the year.

For example, on January the 1st, you would save 1p. Towards the end of the year, say day 365, you would save £3.65

As you can imagine, this starts saving small but eventually ramps up so you will save around £667 over the year.

The problem is, it’s incredibly hard to manage yourself. Finding the time or remembering to transfer funds into another account every day is a challenge. So, like most things in my life, I decided to automate it.
