Budgeting with the envelope method
Give every dollar a job.
Koin is your all-in-one money home: expenses, paychecks, savings, debt and monthly reports, built around the envelope method so your income is split into purpose-built accounts the moment it arrives.
- Your household's data stays private to you
- Shared with your household, nobody else
Example: this month's income
Example$4,000.00
- Bills & rent45% · $1,800.00
- Emergency fund20% · $800.00
- Vacation10% · $400.00
- Debt payoff15% · $600.00
- Fun money10% · $400.00
How Koin saves your money
The envelope method, without the paper envelopes
The old idea still works: when money comes in, divide it into envelopes, one for each thing it is meant for, and spend each only on its own purpose. Koin does the dividing for you.
- 1
Set up your accounts
Make an account for each goal: bills, emergency fund, vacation, debt. Give it a fixed amount or a percentage of what you take home, and an optional target and date.
- 2
Income gets split
Each month Koin works out your net income and shows how much belongs in every account, so the plan is made before the money is spent.
- 3
See what is left to move
Your monthly report lists what is still left to deposit into each account, and you mark the transfer Pending or Completed when it is done.
Everything your household money needs
One place for the whole picture, shared with the people in your household and with no one else.
Expense tracking
Import bank files, categorize in a click, and let your own rules file the repeat charges for you.
Income and paychecks
Record paychecks and taxes, track time punches, and see what you really take home.
Monthly reports
A clear picture of income, spending, budgets and what is left to move, month by month and year by year.
Debt tracking
Keep every debt account in view, log payments, and plan the way down.
Auto-assign rules put charges like “PP*SPOTIFY*…” in the right category, even when the text is never identical.
Example party: Beach weekend
Example- Rental houseDana paid$640.00
- GroceriesSam paid$132.40
- GasAlex paid$58.60
Bill Split
Share costs fairly, with anyone
A trip, a dinner, a shared house. Create a Party, add what everyone paid, and Bill Split keeps track of who owes whom.
- Invite people by email; they only ever see that one Party, never your finances.
- Split evenly or any way you like, with a history of every change.
- Use it on its own: a Bill Split account needs no household and no plan, and can grow into full Koin later.
