BudgetBeacon works out what to put aside each week, from what you actually earned. No bank logins. Your data stays yours.
Takes a couple of minutes a week - you just enter what actually hit your account.
Free on one device, forever. No bank logins, no ads, no trackers.
Most budgeting apps ask what you earn a month. If you work shifts, that question doesn't have an answer.
A good week and a quiet week are not the same week, and a budget that averages them is wrong in both. BudgetBeacon starts from what actually landed in your account this week.
Car registration. $940, due in seven weeks. Here is what BudgetBeacon does with it.
Most apps tell you after you couldn't pay it. This one tells you the week it changes.
The same problem wears different clothes. BudgetBeacon fits all three.
Her roster changes every week. Some weeks she clears $1,100, some weeks $480. Rent is $380 either way. She could never tell a good week from a bad one until the money was already gone.
Her hours are steady but her pay is not. Nights and weekends pay penalty rates, so a fortnight with two night shifts is a different fortnight entirely. Her pay looks regular on paper and never is.
Same pay every month, and that was never his problem. Rego, insurance, the school fees in January. He was fine eleven months of the year and blindsided in the twelfth.
Premium is coming. It adds convenience, never access.
Everything in Free, plus
Free is not a trial, and it does not expire. When Premium arrives, Free stays exactly as it is.
No, and you can't. There is no bank connection anywhere in the app, by design.
Yes - it is how you sign in, and how sync will work when Premium arrives. It never asks for a card. Your budget is saved to your account on our servers in Sydney and cached on your device, so it works offline and survives a lost phone. A downloaded backup is still worth keeping.
On the free plan, on your device - you can export all of it, any time. Cloud backup and sync, stored in Australia, come with Premium (on the way).
On the free plan your budget is saved on this device only, so clearing your browser's history and site data - or an automatic clear, which iPhones can do after about a week of not opening the app - erases it. Your account is safe, but the budget is gone unless you kept a downloaded backup, so back up regularly. On Premium (coming), your data is backed up to our servers in Australia and restores when you sign in.
You keep your data and the full free app, and you can export everything. Premium adds convenience, not access.
Yes. The whole app, on one device, permanently. Premium adds sync and more when it arrives.
Free on one device, forever. No bank logins, no ads, no trackers.
