Who is this space for?

Get started asks who the space is for and previews different ways you can use Moneytabs.

• Just me - your own monthly budgets and trips. Invite later if you want.
• Family or partner - a household space with the same daily number.
• Roommates - a group space for rent, groceries, and shared bills.
• A trip - a group space for a shared adventure with planned set-asides.

Start new or join

After you sign in, pick Start new and name the space, or Join with a code and space id if someone already invited you. You can also open the invite link they shared to easily accept their invitation.

You can belong to more than one space. The switcher in the dropdown user menu at the top of the app lists the Spaces you're in.

Setup a budget

From Home or Budgets:

1. Start a month, a trip, or an event.
2. Set the dates and the total you are willing to spend.
3. Reserve known bills or trip set-asides (gas out, gas back, etc).
4. Save. Home then shows the leftover available cash per day (or per week) based on your budget plans. We call it Today's pace or the Weekly pace.

Everyday spending is logged with the center Add button. Extra unexpected money that was not already in the budget is Money in. Longer-term goals live under Savings and can be linked to a monthly budget.

Trial

New accounts get a 30-day trial of every paid feature, with no card required. When the trial ends your account automatically switches to the Free plan unless you decide to subscribe. Details are on the pricing page.
