Money
Money is a monthly cash-flow view rather than an accounting package: what comes in, what is already committed, and what is genuinely left.
Open MoneyThe cycle
Set the day your household gets paid and the month runs from there, so a cycle matches real life rather than the calendar. Anything left over can carry into the next cycle.
Income and debit orders
- Record salaries and other income, recurring or once-off, per member.
- Record debit orders with the day they go off, so they are subtracted before you plan anything else.
- Mark a scheduled expense as paid and it becomes a real entry.
Categories and spending
Set a monthly limit per category and log spending against it, by hand or by uploading a statement. Entries can be split across categories, excluded, or flagged for review.
Savings pots
Pots hold a target, a monthly contribution and an interest rate, and track deposits and withdrawals so you can see how close you are.
