01

The month ahead

Keep recurring bills, yearly costs and payday together, so the next expense is easier to see coming.

02

Spending in context

Follow your spending pace to payday and the category limits you choose. Foreign purchases keep their original amount alongside a labelled estimate in your household currency.

03

Savings you can follow

Track savings and a target for each pay cycle. See what you’ve recorded, with estimates labelled and room to correct what’s missing.

Works with the way you record money

Start with one entry.

Your bank doesn’t need to send text alerts. Add purchases yourself, review a supported statement, or connect compatible bank SMS when it suits you.
