Budget
MelimeloBudget
Premium plan only
The household budget, clear and shared.
Income, expenses, savings, left to spend, transactions. All the household’s finances on one dashboard, updated in real time by the members of the household.
Everyday life
No more “where does the money go?”
A household means several incomes, dozens of expenses and one-off projects on top. A shared, up-to-date view changes the conversation about money at home.
The “Summary” at the top: what the household has spent against its income, section by section, and “Left to spend”, the money in minus the money out. In a second, you know what the household can still spend this month.
End of the month, Emma imports the joint account statement. The transactions land in one go, minus the duplicates, and the “Unassigned” filter shows what’s left to sort, with a category suggested from similar transactions.
In the yearly view, the “Spent” ring stays green below 75% of planned income, turns yellow above that and red from 100%. A visible signal before you look at the figures in detail.
Features
Designed to keep a level head.
Household dashboard
A “Summary” that shows at a glance what the household has spent against its income, each category against its planned amount, and “Left to spend”. Built-in monthly or yearly switch, with your choice kept from one visit to the next.
Spending ring
In the yearly view, a ring shows the share of planned income already spent. Green below 75%, yellow above, red from 100%. The signal comes before the detailed figures.
Sections and categories
3 section types: “Expenses”, “Income”, “Savings”, each with its own colour. Every category has its emoji (Salaries, Benefits, Rent, Groceries, Savings account, etc.). Start from a template or create your own, and reorder on the fly.
Monthly or yearly
Switch between the monthly and yearly view with a tap. Handy for choosing between a monthly or yearly subscription, or for spotting the costs that weigh on your year.
Planned savings
A “Savings” section groups your categories (savings account, ISA, crypto, etc.) and their contributions, monthly or yearly. In the “Budget” tab, what’s “Left” works itself out: income minus expenses and savings.
Accounts and transactions
Add the household’s accounts (bank, account members), then your transactions: amount, description, payee, account, payment method. Each month shows its “Money in” and “Money out”, with search and an “Unassigned” filter.
OFX statement import
Rather than retyping a month of transactions by hand, import the OFX file your bank provides. The transactions land in the budget, ready to be sorted.
Connected to the rest
Alongside everything else in the household.
- TravelTravel
A trip has its own “Budget” tab: the trip’s expenses, who paid for them and their “Breakdown” between participants. They stay in the trip, separate from the household’s transactions.
- ShoppingShopping
Groceries are one of the most unpredictable costs in a household. Keeping the shopping list in its own module and the amount in Budget helps you see where the overspending hides.
- Meal planMeal plan
Planning the week’s meals in Meal plan helps you anticipate the grocery budget that follows. The 2 modules work together to keep everyday spending in check.
- SplitSplit
2 different questions. Budget answers “where does the household’s money go, month after month”, around accounts, transactions and sections. Split answers “who paid for what” within a group of people, with a balance to settle and an end point. They share no data.
All the modules talk to each other. Not just these 4.
