This cool travel piggy bank is the best option for families. Not only does it come with the option to personalize it for your family’s travel dream, but it also doubles as a cherished keepsake box.

Once your adventure is complete (and you took the cash out), the money box seamlessly transforms into a treasured keepsake box, preserving the tickets, photos, and tokens from your unforgettable journey.

This is probably my favorite travel money box on this list. Now this might have something to do with my ultimate dream of traveling the world in a camper van, but I know many of you share that dream with me.

And what better way to save for such a trip than with a money fund in style!

It’s made from ceramics, but luckily it comes with a plug at the bottom, so you don’t have to break your van to access the money.

It’s also a great wedding gift for traveling couples, but also for solo travelers because you can simply add your own first and last name to the van instead of your partner’s.

Are you someone who is often guilty of prematurely taking out money from your travel fund for other purposes?

Then this is the best travel fund money box for you!

A stainless steel box, from which you can only take out money if you completely break it open. That will help you to think twice before spending your travel money on other things!


#7 Piggy bank with custom photo

You can add any photo you want to this cute suitcase-shaped piggy bank. Maybe a photo of your last holiday to motivate you to save more for your next holiday. Or maybe a photo of you and your lover, if you are saving for a world trip together.

Or basically, any photo you want.

Oh, one thing that’s probably good to know, you only need to remove the back frame if you want to take your saved money out.


#8 Travel money box with world map

Anything with a map is great for travelers. And that is why this money box with the map of the world in the background is perfect.

The map is also a good reminder of why you are saving this money. To see all the countries on the map you have yet to discover, will surely motivate you to set aside some money.

There is also an option to personalize the money box for a small fee.


#9 New York piggy bank

This is by far the best money jar if you’re saving for a trip to the Big Apple.

It’s made from ceramics and comes with a ceramic lid that can easily be removed to take out your money.


#10 Wooden travel fund piggy bank for couples

Would you like a piggy bank to start saving for the next adventure with your lover?

Then this is an awesome box for you!

I have also shared it as one of the cool gift ideas for couples who travel together.

You can easily access your money by removing the back of the box. So you don’t need to break the box in order to get your money (as with traditional piggy banks). And there is no hassle with a small hole at the bottom.

Though, this could also mean that you take out money for other causes. But as a travel lover, what other causes could you possibly spend money on?

Anyway, if you prefer a different design for your couple’s travel fund, check out the next option.


#11 White piggy bank for couples

This is another great travel money box for couples. This time it’s a cute romantic white wooden box.

Again, you can simply remove the back of the box to retrieve your money.


#12 Squared travel fund

This squared travel fund is a cool piggy bank for travelers. The “large” box only measures 6 x 6 x 6 inches (6 inches is about 15,2 cm, for people who use the metric system).

There is a small hole at the bottom to empty it out, though it is really small, so you might struggle if you want to completely empty it.

But I guess, that’s actually a good thing. It just makes it harder to use the money for anything other than your final goal.


#13 Personalized money jar

So, why settle for an ordinary piggy bank when you can have a personalized travel fund jar that embodies your unique travel aspirations?

Let this cool travel piggy bank be a fun and stylish companion on your savings journey and a precious keepsake that holds the memories of your unforgettable adventures.


#14 Safari-themed money jar

Are you saving for your next trip to Africa and seeing wild animals on a safari? Then this is the vacation fund piggy bank you need!

This jar with cute giraffes will surely keep you motivated to save enough money and finally see them in real life.


#15 Personalized beer bottle

This piggy bank shaped like a beer bottle is the best way to save money as an alcohol or beer lover.

And what’s even cooler is that you can personalize this beer bottle too!

It’s made of glass and there is no option to retrieve the money, other than to break it. Which is quite sad, but also the best way to prevent spending your money on other causes (such as another drink you definitely don’t need).


#16 Personalized travel fund jar with map

If you love maps and you love travel fund jars, then this personalized option from Etsy is perfect.

You can pick the color of the map and completely customize the message so that it becomes your personal jar or for you and your family!

And the good thing about this jar is that the opening is so small, it will take you some time to take your cash out giving you a moment to pause and think before you take out the money for other causes.


#17 Blue vacation piggy bank

Jar with text "vacation fund"

I would argue that this is one of the cutest money jars for travelers. Or for anyone who loves a vacation, really.

It’s a ceramic jar of about 3 x 5 x 6 inches ( 7.6 x 12.7 x 15.2 cm), so not the biggest jar out there. But the lid is made from cork and can be removed super easily, so you can deposit some money in your bank if the jar ever gets too full. This lid also means that you don’t have to break your pretty jar each time you want to use up your saved money.


#18 Money jar for beach lovers

Are you trying to save for your next beach vacation?

Then this travel fund jar is the perfect jar for you! It’s made from ceramics and comes with a ceramic lid to easily access your money.

#20 Travel trailer money collector

This is one of the best travel piggy banks for people who love to travel by RV, a travel fund in the shape of a trailer camper!

Whether you’re saving to buy your own camper or just for your next camper trip, this cool money box will surely motivate you to save all you’ve got. It’s made of polystone, so it feels and looks like a stone piggy bank.

There is a rubber plug at the bottom to get money out, though you may need to break the trailer if you can’t get it all out. But I guess that’s the whole point of a piggy bank.


#21 Vacation piggy bank

Don’t we all need a vacation every once in a while?

To help you fund that well-deserved vacation, you can use this white travel piggy bank with a glass frame at the front. And you just need to remove the back frame if you want to take your money out.


Travel piggy banks for small budgets

#22 Ceramic suitcase money box

This ceramic suitcase with a painting of the map of the world is another one of the great piggy banks for travelers.

Because remember what I said about travelers and maps? It’s a match made in heaven.

The suitcase only measures 4.9 x 3.6 x 2.2 inches ( about 12.5 x 9.5 x 5.5 cm), so it’s quite a small money box. But it is great to store your loose change.


#23 Money box for ocean lovers

This black wooden travel money box is perfect for ocean lovers!

It comes with a two-sided background frame, though the one with the turtle would be best for someone who is saving for their next trip to the ocean.

The box measures 7 x 7 x 2 inches ( 17.7 x 17.8 x 5 cm) and opens the same way as most boxes on this list.


#24 Cruise travel fund jar

#25 Wooden money box

Are you looking for relatively cheap and simple travel piggy banks?

Then this elegant wooden box is perfect. It shows that a cute travel fund box doesn’t need to be expensive. You can save that money for traveling ;).

As with most boxes on this list, the back frame is removable to access money.
