Systems and methods for account-linked piggy bank

A method comprising:

• associating, by a processing circuit of a piggy bank system, a piggy bank with a first account of a user, the piggy bank comprising:
• a compartment configured to receive contents, a lid coupled to the compartment and configured to contain the contents within the compartment when closed, a first sensor configured to sense when an encodable physical coin is added to or removed from the compartment, and a second sensor configured to sense at least one of weight or motion of the contents within the compartment, wherein the first sensor is a near field communication (NFC) sensor;
• receiving, by the processing circuit, decoded coin data from the encodable physical coin added to the compartment of the piggy bank, wherein the decoded coin data includes a transaction request indicating a currency amount to be transferred to the first account from a second account;
• detecting, by the processing circuit and the second sensor, a movement of the contents within the compartment;
• preventing, by the processing circuit and based on the detected movement, the piggy bank from locking the contents within the compartment;
• transmitting, by the processing circuit, the transaction request to a provider computing system;
• receiving, by the processing circuit, a transaction request confirmation from the provider computing system;
• and
• transmitting, by the processing circuit, a notification to a user device of the user indicating the currency amount has been deposited into the first account of the user.
