Budgeting That Actually Works

You don’t need a spreadsheet. You just need to be clear about what you have, what you need and what matters to you.

• List your monthly income and essentials like rent, tuition and groceries

• Set aside space for what you enjoy, from takeout to weekend trips

• Use Spending Insights in the bunq app to see your spending patterns

• Set Spending Limits so you stay on track, even when plans change

• Create Bank Accounts per goal to keep everything organised

Everything stays clear and easy to manage.
