How the Vault works
Financial security starts with your first emergency fund. The Cushion Vault helps protect what you've built while unlocking new opportunities.
Step 01
Earn
Ten small loans build your trust.
Step 02
Build
Grow your cushion to $1,000.
Step 03
Lock
Voluntarily protect it inside the Vault.
Step 04
Unlock
Access up to $10,000 of emergency capacity.
Step 05
Graduate
Move beyond needing to borrow.
The Vault is a voluntary lock — not a transfer of ownership. Your $1,000 remains fully yours at all times, protected while you participate in the program.
Emergency capacity is a preparedness tool — designed to be there when you need it and untouched when you don't. No revolving balances. No traps.
