hey bestie, ready to make budgeting effortless? with budget bestie, you can take full control of your money on your own terms—whether you get paid weekly, biweekly, twice a month, or monthly, we’ve got you covered. using the cash stuffing method, you’ll say goodbye to stress and hello to a budgeting approach that fits your life perfectly. okay but what’s cash stuffing? 1. create envelopes – create an envelope for each expense category like food, eating out, rent 2. stuff your envelopes – put all of your cash into envelopes based on how much you’ll spend before you get paid again 3. spend your money – this is the fun part - don’t feel guilty for spending your hard earned money. when you buy something, use the cash from the corresponding envelope 4. get paid, repeat - record your income (cha-ching) and go back to step 2, stuff your envelopes how budget bestie works - no need to carry cash - we’ve taken this 100+ year old proven technique and put it in your iPhone - say bye to math and spreadsheets - we’ll recommend how much to stuff into each envelope based on previous spending habits and upcoming bills - avoid late fees by getting reminded - we’ll send you a notification when you haven’t recorded paying a recurring expense - hit your savings goals - create savings envelopes and we’ll make sure you’re on track to hit your goals - budget on your schedule - whether it’s weekly, biweekly, twice a month, or monthly, you can budget based on what works for you what our besties are saying: “First full month of the app and it's so simple. I've not had to dip into my emergency fund or sinking fund or use overdraft. I've even managed to put some money towards debt and not reuse it” - @Nicola Disney Pomeranian Mummy "Been using budget bestie for a month!The monthly recap made me realize I spend so much on little things (like buying to go lunch everyday) since it's in budget, but never seen how much it adds up" – @Julia "This app is great I have been searching for a budgeting app that lets me budget per check and this is it” - @Chy6699 “Definitely helped me the last two weeks.

  • if it’s paid just say so upfront

    I had no clue this was a paid app until I spent an hour plus getting everything set up, all envelopes done and money divided and then got to a hard stop page. Per other reviews the app owners claim there’s an early notice but if you invest anytime into actually setting up the app, the notice comes AFTER all the work. I’d rather there be an immediate hard stop/pay wall like all other paid apps where you either pay or do a short term free trial and connect billing info - at least I would have known. In the most constructive way possible, please use this feedback to adjust the timing the pay wall is presented so people can assess if your app is the right fit for them before investing a hour + into getting setup.
  • fix this app!!

    such a cute app but i’m trying to use it and it’ll get stuck on the welcome page. i keep pressing continue and it will not move onto the next screen. its stuck on the “welcome to budget bestie”. i shouldn’t have to delete and redownload the app every single time i want to use it.
  • costs money?!

    great idea…except for the fact that they don’t mention anywhere that it costs money monthly. the app let’s you put in all the work to create your budget categories and schedule your “cash stuffs” but won’t let you use any of it until you pay. personally i think this app would be a lot more popular and profitable if there were levels with a free basic level. i was really looking forward to using this, but i don’t know if it will be beneficial thus making the purchase a lot harder of a decision

    Got all the way through setting up before getting asked to pay for the subscription 🙃 Maybe I missed somewhere that it wasn’t free, but I was really disappointed.

    OK, small business ✔️ it’s so customizable for my specific budget, that I can make it for my paydays my specific goals in my specific lifestyle financially. It also gives you estimates of when you should be putting money into a certain budget or how much should be putting into a certain budget
  • App upgrades for couples

    The app is great really enjoy the aesthetics but there are is one small update keeping me from purchasing and that is the option for couples who have different pay schedules (I.e. twice a month AND every two weeks). I know that sounds trivial but it would really help keep people like me on task. I hope something like this could happen because I’d love to love this app.
  • Best Budget App I Have Ever Used!

    I loooove this app, I’ve had it since the first day it launched and it has helped me so so so much. I have tried other budgeting apps but they don’t work since it’s connected to your bank account and automatically tracks your spending habits. As a person with ADHD those apps did nothing for me and didn’t actually help me budget and I ended up deleting after a couple of days. On the other hand having Budget Bestie keeps me in check because I have to manually put everything in myself. And although the ADHD memory isn’t the best to remind myself to update it as I spend, the app does have built in reminder settings!! I have gotten in the habit of checking my budget before every purchase which is an important factor for being successful. This app has also helped me stop overspending, especially on unnecessary things because I have to really think about the budget I set out for myself and how it would be affected by that unnecessary purchase. Overall it’s amazing and totally recommend it. Plus it’s super cute💖10/10

    This app has seriously been a game changer. I used to budget in my notes app, but this is so much better! It’s so easy to track and budget expenses, and the developers are always making great updates.
