SmartyPig Mobile Web Site Launched!

At SmartyPig, if there is one thing we try to over deliver on each and every day, it's listening and reacting quickly to our customers' feedback and suggestions. Not a day goes by where we don't discuss new and exciting suggestions from SmartyPig users. So when we told folks we were in the process of developing a mobile site, they were quick to suggest that we focus not only on the iPhone and iPod Touch but other mobile devices as well, such as Android G1 and the upcoming Palm Pre. So rather than develop a specific app for one mobile device, we set out to develop a mobile Web site that would try and retain the unique iPhone look and feel and deliver that to as many of the newer mobile devices as possible. And don't worry, for those phones that don't support more advanced mobile web browsers, the site will work just fine. It just might not be as pretty as the images below.

The SmartyPig mobile site can be found at m.smartypig.com. It provides a secure and easy way to quickly access your account information on the go.

View Your Goals
Saving money with SmartyPig is easy. But we all need encouragement now and again. With SmartyPig's new mobile site, you can quickly access and view the status of your goals and review your past transactions.

Friends
Sometimes it's fun to see what your friends are saving for. It gives you motivation to continue on the saving path. Our mobile site allows you to view your friends on SmartyPig, quickly see what they are saving for, and view the progress they have made.

Security
At SmartyPig we take security very seriously. The SmartyPig mobile site utilizes VeriSign® SSL 256-bit encryption, is certified daily to pass the McAfee® SECURE Security Scan, and has undergone comprehensive security auditing and testing by Primeon, a leader in enterprise-wide application security. Primeon works with 50 of the largest financial services enterprises in the United States.

And a big shout out to Brian Fling at pinch/zoom who helped us with the mobile site. He's one wickedly talented mobile Web designer and developer.

We look forward to building additional features into the mobile site. And as always, we welcome your feedback and suggestions.

Mike Ferrari, co-founder
