Where to find it
- On the website
- Home; Accounts and Transactions.
- On Android
- Home and More.
Start with one account
You do not need to transfer your entire financial history. Start with the card or cash you use most often.
- Open Accounts and add an account.
- Give it a recognisable name, such as “Everyday card”.
- Choose its currency and enter the current balance. This is what you have now, not your income for the month.
Record your first purchase
Tap the plus or add-transaction button. Choose an expense, then enter the amount, account and category. For example: 450 RUB, “Everyday card”, “Groceries”.
- Check the date: record yesterday’s purchase with yesterday’s date.
- Save it and find the entry in Transactions.
- If you add older purchases, check the balance so you do not count them again in the opening balance.
Check the result
Your home screen will now show your data. Analytics becomes more useful as you add entries: one expense does not describe a month of habits.
- Record purchases for a few days or import a statement.
- Start with a few clear categories. Add more detail later.
- Registration includes a 7-day free trial. Check billing for current plan features.
