Enter your take-home pay and your recurring weekly expenses, and watch exactly how your balance drains from Monday to Sunday — with a clear callout of what's left once Friday hits.
Bank balances are usually checked in isolation, after the fact. Seeing your money drop across an entire week, day by day, makes it obvious exactly which days — and which expenses — do the most damage before your next paycheck arrives.
Rent, bills and early-week spending often collide right around Friday. This tool calls that number out on purpose.
A day-by-day bar chart makes it obvious whether it's one big Monday expense or several smaller ones adding up.
Paid weekly, biweekly or monthly? Everything gets converted to a consistent weekly baseline automatically.
The tracker assumes your full weekly take-home pay is available at the very start of the week on Monday. From there, every expense you've added is subtracted on the day of the week you assigned it, and the tool keeps a running balance from Monday straight through Sunday. If you're paid biweekly or monthly, your pay is first converted into an equivalent weekly figure — biweekly pay is simply halved, and monthly pay is multiplied by twelve months and divided by fifty-two weeks — so the day-by-day math always works against a consistent weekly number. The bar chart shows each day's remaining balance as a share of your full weekly pay, and Friday gets its own highlighted bar and its own headline numbers, since it's the day most people mentally check in on how the week's spending has gone. If your expenses add up to more than your weekly pay by a given day, the balance is simply shown as negative rather than breaking the display, so you can see exactly how far under water a rough week would leave you. Nothing you enter here is uploaded, saved, or sent anywhere — it's recalculated fresh in your browser every time you press Show my week.
A full seven-day running balance, not just a single end-of-week number.
The namesake number is front and center, in both dollars and percent.
Weekly, biweekly and monthly pay are all converted fairly to a weekly baseline.
Your weekly take-home pay is treated as available starting Monday. Each expense you add is subtracted on the day of the week you assign it, and the running balance after Friday's expenses is what's shown as left by Friday.
Yes. Choose your pay frequency and the tool converts it into an equivalent weekly amount before building the day-by-day breakdown.
The week runs Monday through Sunday, and your full weekly take-home is assumed available at the start of Monday before any expenses are subtracted.
Yes. Use the add expense button as many times as you need, and remove any row with the delete button next to it.
