What is Goodbudget?

Envelope budgeting synced across web and mobile.

Who is Goodbudget best for?

Goodbudget is best for couples and households who budget with the envelope method and want one shared budget.

  • Couples sharing one budget

    The budget syncs across both partners' phones and the web, so each sees what the other spent, where and when.

  • Overspending by category

    Money goes into envelopes such as groceries or eating out at the start of the month, and you spend from those rather than from your bank balance.

  • Saving for large bills

    Envelopes can hold money for months ahead of a car payment, a holiday or a yearly bill, so it does not arrive as a surprise.

  • Paying down debt

    Debt accounts on the web track how the payoff is going while the rest of the budget carries on as normal.
