Envelope: Banking for Families 4+

It was only one review but to future users: This is a FINTECH BANK. If you’re not looking for a bank with an envelope budgeting system, this bank is not for you so don’t be rating it poorly because you can’t understand what it is. Now onto the review:

I’ve been with Envelope Money since it was just starting super bare bones as a beta tester and now alpha tester. I have had many banks including Simple and One which, if you had them, you know how badly we got burned. So jumping into another fintech wasn’t an easy decision but I cannot tell you how happy I was to have made the jump! This bank is built on community feedback and are committed to transparency and customer satisfaction. It is unlike any other banking experience I’ve ever had. As a neurodivergent person, an envelope system is integral to my financial success. The founders of Envelope Money have been consistently communicative and dedicated to app improvement since day one. I don’t know how they do it! I am thankful for have found EM and I hope traditional banks take note and learn a thing or two!

Since the closure of Simple, a moment I'd describe as the most disheartening in my financial journey, my partner and I have been on a quest for the ideal financial management solution. We experimented with One, which was effective but didn’t quite meet my budgeting needs.

Then we discovered Envelope Money. It's been a revelation. The app is user-friendly and robust, making financial management a breeze. The customer support team has been exceptional, providing timely and helpful assistance.

What really sets Envelope apart is their dynamic approach to feature updates. They actively engage on social media, maintaining a close connection with their user base – who might as well be considered fans at this point! I find myself increasingly invested in Envelope's approach to managing finances. It's almost like experiencing the efficiency of envelope budgeting all over again, reminiscent of what I cherished about Simple.

Within 4 days, since transferring my accounts from ONE to Envelope, I feel a hugeeee weight lifted off my shoulders, and this applies to all areas from budgeting, to bill automation, to simple things such as getting gas. I feel in complete control of my money. This is the financial zen that has been missing, I've been craving, and has been driving me mad, since Simple. I used to avoid/dread going into the ONE app, but now I am constantly looking for excuses to go to the Envelope app because I love it that much. The catch is everything is so well designed, there is little to do everyday. Ha! Your mission is working!!!I believe you have already matched Simple on the core experience and are continuing to surpass it everyday, as features expand.
