Features

Everything your household’s money needs

Simple on the surface, rigorous underneath. Every action becomes a balanced double-entry record, so your numbers always add up.

Money in and out

The everyday: what comes in, what goes out, and where it sits.

Income

Salary, rent received, freelance income and more, each to its own category.

Spending

Against clear categories — or create a new category right where you are.

Split bills

Pay for a group: your share is spending, the rest is owed to you by name.

Transfers

Move money between your own accounts without it counting as spending.

Refunds

Money coming back is recorded against the original spending.

Recurring items

Bills, income and investments post themselves on schedule, and can be paused or skipped.

Budgets

Monthly budgets by category or tag, compared with what you actually spent.

Built-in calculator

Work out an amount right inside the field, on desktop and phone.

Money with people

Money between you and the people in your life.

Money owed to you

Lend money or pay on someone’s behalf, and see what they owe you.

Money you owe

What you need to pay back, with expected dates and reminders.

Net balance per person

One figure per person, after what you owe each other.

Settling up

Repayments either way settle the balance — never counted as income.

Investments

What you have put in, and what it is worth today.

Holdings

Shares, funds, gold and other investments, each with its own register.

Contributions

Money put in from any account, with units and price if you like.

Investment plans

Regular monthly contributions that post themselves.

Valuations

Record today’s value to see your gain and an up-to-date net worth.

The things you own, in the same books as everything else.

Property

Homes and land at cost and at current value.

Vehicles & other assets

Anything of value you want in your net worth.

Joint ownership

Own something with someone else by percentage — only your share counts.

Buying & selling

Purchases and sales recorded properly, including any gain or loss.

Loans & cards

What you owe, kept honest.

Loans & mortgages

The balance outstanding and every payment against it.

Credit cards

Card spending increases what you owe; paying the card brings it down.

Invoices & bills

For side income and freelance work — not a business accounting system.

Invoices
