A Rocket Money alternative built around your budget
Rocket Money describes itself as a subscription manager and budgeting app, with a concierge that cancels services for you. Spendee is about the whole month: every payment sorted, a budget that tells you what is left for today, and wallets you can share. Here is how the two compare.
| What | Spendee | Rocket Money |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free. Plus $3.99 a month or $27.99 a year; Premium $7.99 a month or $44.99 a year (US App Store) | Free, with a paid Premium membership |
| Free plan | Yes, with no time limit: manual entries, backup and sync across devices, one cash wallet and a total budget | Yes: account linking, balance alerts, subscription management and spend tracking |
| Bank connection | On Premium: read-only, through Salt Edge and Plaid, with bank lists for 36 countries | Link checking, savings, credit card and investment accounts, on the free plan |
| Sharing | Shared wallets on Plus and Premium; only the wallet’s owner needs a paid plan | Shared accounts are part of Premium |
| The idea | See where your money went, sorted for you, and what is left for today | Save more, spend less, see everything; a concierge cancels services and negotiates bills |

Questions
What is a good alternative to Rocket Money?
If you want budgets and a clear picture of where your money goes, Spendee: payments are sorted into categories, a budget shows what is left for each day, and wallets can be shared. If you mainly want subscriptions cancelled and bills negotiated for you, that is what Rocket Money offers and Spendee does not.
Is Spendee free like Rocket Money?
Both have a free plan. Spendee’s free plan covers payments you add by hand, one cash wallet and a total budget. Rocket Money’s free plan includes account linking, balance alerts, subscription management and spend tracking. Spendee Plus is $3.99 a month or $27.99 a year and Premium $7.99 a month or $44.99 a year on the US App Store.
Does Spendee cancel subscriptions?
No. Spendee shows recurring payments you plan ahead, but it does not cancel services or negotiate bills for you. Rocket Money offers both through its Premium membership.
Can I connect my bank to Spendee?
Yes, on the Premium plan, read-only through Salt Edge and Plaid, with bank lists for 36 countries.
