Know what you can spend until payday. Log a purchase in seconds and today's number updates. Bills come off first. No ads. No bank login.
Know what you can safely spend today.
CentsCheck gives you one number for today. It takes your fixed bills and what you have already spent off your monthly budget, then spreads the rest over the days left in your budget month. Log a purchase and the number updates. Tap it to see the calculation, line by line.
Works with your AI agent
Connect an AI assistant such as Claude, Grok or Cursor to CentsCheck with AI Link, free. Tell it what you spent, send it a photo of a receipt, or ask how your month is going. It logs the spend in CentsCheck and answers from your real numbers, and it can change entries when you ask. Every entry it adds carries an AI badge, you can undo an action within five minutes, and a full budget plan waits for your approval in CentsCheck. Disconnect any time.
No account linking. No ads. No data selling. Sign-in is optional.

Subscription terms
CentsCheck Pro is optional. It comes as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or as Pro Lifetime, a one-time purchase that never renews. The app shows the price and any free trial before you buy, and prices vary by region. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. A subscription renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. Any unused part of a free trial ends when you buy a subscription.

- Start a shared pool from Pools in one tap.
- Marking a payment settled in a shared pool is now free.
- When you're over budget, Home now shows the amount you're over in one place, instead of a percentage.
- Your shared pool's daily number and who owes whom now show on Home and on the pool's card.
