Personal Cash Flow Tracker

Know where your money stands.

Follow each account day by day, and spot a low balance before it happens.

A month can look fine and still run short.

Bills and paychecks don’t always line up, so the tight days are easy to miss. The Personal Cash Flow Tracker follows each of your accounts day by day: what’s coming in, what’s going out, and when a balance might dip below your safety net.

  • Projects every account, every day, for a full year
  • Flags any day a balance falls below the safety net you set
  • Shows all your accounts in one view: lowest balance, ending balance and a 12-month outlook
  • Lets you type in real amounts as they happen, then check against your bank balance

Optional debt payoff feature

Pay down debt without running short.

Compare 3 ways to pay down debt (Monthly Payments Only, Snowball and Avalanche), with payoff dates and interest for each. Before each extra payment, the tracker checks it won’t drop an account below its safety net.
