Piggy banks through the millennia - Our wholesale piggy bank

The habit of hoarding coins in containers is as old as coinage itself, dating back some 4,000 years. The oldest surviving money box has been on display at the Iraqi National Museum in Baghdad since 1990. It is a 17-centimeter-tall clay vessel dating from the 3rd century B.C. Unfortunately, it has been considered lost since the turmoil of the Iraq War. Among the Romans, spherical or pear-shaped money boxes were very popular in private households because they could be produced inexpensively on a potter’s wheel. After all, they had to be smashed to get to the contents.

Money boxes were used for personal savings, but also for collecting money for alms, the church, or craft guilds. In the Middle Ages, the primary containers used for this purpose were solid boxes with wrought-iron decorations and intricate locking mechanisms. The piggy bank became popular quite early on. The pig was considered a symbol of fertility and was believed to bring good luck and perseverance in saving. A psychological effect was always the necessity of having to destroy the pig at the end before one could lay hands on the savings. For even back then, piggy banks were designed to be very decorative.

With the advent of savings accounts, the piggy bank became a temporary holding place for savings before they were transferred to a bank account. In the traditional sense, they remain popular primarily with children, to introduce the little ones to saving. Adults use them to keep their wallets free of loose change, to fulfill the occasional special wish, or to attractively package monetary gifts. In our wholesale collection of piggy banks, you’ll find the right one for every purpose your customers have in mind.

Saving means preserving.

Money boxes for adults and children have lost none of their popularity over the years. After all, most of us save up for a specific goal. Saving is closely linked to the history of money. The German word *sparen* traces back to the Old High German verb *spar*, which means something like “to keep something intact” or “to preserve.” Saving, then, means setting something aside for a purchase that is truly close to our hearts.

Piggy banks, money boxes, or money boxes also have symbolic significance. The mere presence of such original containers serves as a constant reminder of what we are saving for. The shape of a piggy bank for adults can visually reinforce an individual savings goal. The football fan might be saving up for a trip to the next World Cup. A suitcase money box can be used to save for the next vacation. Money boxes for adults make for unique gifts for loved ones whose secret wishes we suspect and whom we’d like to support in their savings goals.

Piggy banks with keys – that way your money is safe

There are many reasons why money boxes for adults should ideally have a key. Just think about what would happen to a conventional piggy bank when you want to spend the money you’ve saved. That’s right: you’d have to smash it open. A key on adult piggy banks prevents you from having to buy a new one every time you use the money you’ve saved. Reusability is one thing—security is another. Placing attractive piggy banks in a workplace or a home full of curious onlookers is a bold move. As beautiful as adult piggy banks may be—they are not safe from some curious employees or strangers who have access to the premises! Piggy banks with keys protect your customers’ hard-earned savings from the prying eyes and fingers of third parties.

One miscalculation and the thought of reaching into the piggy bank immediately arises. If you know that one of your customers’ piles of coins will never make it under the lid, piggy banks with keys are a viable option. Once the money has been locked away, the key can be kept by the receptionist, for example.

Spardose mit Zählwerk

Piggy bank with counter among the most practical piggy banks for adults. There are beautiful piggy banks for adults, funny piggy banks for adults, and countless unique piggy banks. Those with a built-in counter offer many advantages.

A piggy bank with a counter reveals, down to the last cent, exactly how much has already been deposited into your “savings account.” Especially when there are a lot of coins, it’s hard to estimate the amount just by looking at it from the outside. People often shake their piggy banks; for adults, the sound and weight of the coins seem sufficient for a rough estimate of the savings. This rough estimate can lead to a nasty surprise if saving is stopped prematurely as a result.

A piggy bank with a counter, on the other hand, shows exactly how much money has actually been deposited, allowing for organized saving. Especially when there is a specific goal within a department and a set timeline, such as an upcoming Christmas party, a piggy bank with a counter can be very helpful. It not only shows how much more needs to be saved—These unique piggy banks motivate everyone participating in the savings effort.

Every time a coin is dropped into the piggy bank, it registers on the counter. No matter how small or insignificant the coin may seem, the counter registers the entry and motivates further saving. Moreover, things can get hectic in some businesses. Constantly counting the collected money coin by coin is a time-consuming process that requires a calm and collected mind. A piggy bank for adults that takes this task off your hands is extremely practical. Delight your customer or business partner with a piggy bank that does the counting for you!

Named piggy banks can motivate a company to save together. But even in departments where everyone wants to save for their own goals, personalized piggy banks help keep track of individual contributions. Personalized piggy banks are also very useful in the workplace. For example, in hair salons, it's extremely practical to place piggy banks with employees' names at the cash register so customers know who to tip.
