It's free.
All of it.

No tiers, no trial, no card. Every feature is on every account. The only thing Budgi asks for is a CSV export from your bank — never your banking login.

How it can be free

Everything included

The AI coach, super projections, scenario planner and debt strategies are the features other apps put behind their top tier. They are all just here.

No bank access, ever

No CDR consent, no accredited data recipient holding a copy of your banking data, no standing read access. You upload a file — that is the whole relationship.

Any bank, any account

CSV export exists at every Australian bank, including the smaller ones and the business, joint and legacy accounts open banking skipped.

Bank feeds are the expensive part of building a finance app — the data providers charge per connection, every month, and that cost is what every subscription is really paying for. Budgi skips it. You do two minutes of work a month instead, and the app costs nothing.

Questions

Is Budgi really free?

Yes. Every feature is included on every account — the AI coach, super optimiser, scenario planner, debt strategies, exports, household sharing. There are no paid tiers, no trial that expires, and we never ask for a card.

What's the catch?

There isn't a hidden one, but there is a trade-off worth being upfront about: Budgi doesn't connect to your bank. You export a CSV from internet banking and upload it, which takes about two minutes. In exchange you pay nothing and we never hold access to your accounts.

How do transactions get into Budgi?

You download a CSV statement from your bank and drop it in. Budgi works out which bank the file came from, reads the columns, and categorises every line with AI. Re-importing a file that overlaps with one you already uploaded is safe — duplicates are detected.

Does it work with my bank?

If your bank lets you export a CSV or transaction file, it works — and every Australian bank does. That includes smaller banks and credit unions, plus older, business and joint accounts that open banking never covered.

Do you connect to my bank or use Open Banking?

No. Budgi has no bank feed and asks for no CDR consent, so there is no accredited third party holding a copy of your banking data and no ongoing read access to your accounts. The only data we hold is what you upload.

Will it stay free?

That's the intention. If paid options are ever introduced, the features you have today stay available on your account — we won't take something away and sell it back to you.

Can I get my data out?

Any time, in full, as CSV or PDF. Your data leaves as easily as it arrived.
