How MoniePlan works
Five questions. Two minutes. One complete budget.
Choose your life stage
Are you budgeting solo, as a couple, or for a family? This determines which categories appear in your budget — singles get more personal spending, families get childcare and education.
Enter your income
Tell us your monthly take-home pay. If you're a couple or family, add your partner's income too. We use this to calculate percentage-based allocations.
List your fixed bills
Rent, utilities, insurance, car payments, student loans — enter the monthly amounts for your recurring obligations. These get locked into your budget as fixed line items.
Set your goals
Choose an emergency fund target (3-12 months), add a custom savings goal, and decide if you want to prioritize paying off debt. We'll build these into your monthly plan.
Get your budget
After a quick review and $5 payment, we generate a complete 12-month budget. Every category, every month, with seasonal adjustments and savings targets built in.
