Create your account2
Set your income
On Overview, find How much am I bringing in? Add each source, enter what one payment is worth, and choose how often it arrives. CommenCents converts recurring pay into a monthly planning amount; one-time income stays in the selected month.
3
Give your money a job
Use the starter categories or choose New category. Enter the amount you plan to use for each category. Ready to assign shows income that has not been planned yet.
4
Record spending
Choose Add transaction, enter the merchant, amount, and category, then save. The category balance and spending totals update immediately.
5
Check your progress
Use the overview, category balances, latest activity, and top categories to see where the month stands. Use the month arrows to open another monthly plan.
