PocketGuard is a money and budget planner with a spending tracker and expense organizer. A budgeting app will help you save money and manage your monthly budget with confidence.
Join 1M+ people who already Know Where the Money Goes and What’s Safe to Spend!

Plan your budget with a budgeting app, see your real-life spending patterns over time, set money goals, and use a debt payoff planner and tracker — all in one app designed to give you control of your budget and finance.

Always Know What’s in Your Pocket

PocketGuard helps you make smarter spending decisions by showing:
• Your real-time balance after income and expenses
• The actual safe-to-spend amount after bills, goals, and essentials in your monthly budget plan
• How much you can safely use today without hurting tomorrow’s budget

Spending Pace — You won't overspend anymore

By analyzing budgets, bills, goals, and recent spending behavior, Pace shows:
• On Pace — spending is aligned with your monthly budget plan
• Under Pace — money spending is trending lower than expected
• Over Pace — spending is accelerating and may exceed the budget

Unlike flat daily averages, Pace adjusts to real habits, upcoming bills, and planned contributions — helping you course-correct early and stay in control.
