What it is

Your bank shows what's in the account today. It doesn't know about Thursday's rent or next week's insurance, so the number on the screen is usually bigger than the number you can actually use. YewSave works out the smaller one and explains where it came from. It tells you what your money is doing and what to do next, without jargon and without judging you for it.

It works from your real spending, so the lessons and the coaching are about your situation instead of a generic tip list.

What it does

• A needs, wants and savings split, built from your real spending and paced to today's date.
• A cash-flow forecast that shows what's safe to use before payday.
• Coaching that teaches. Every suggestion explains why, so you pick up the reasoning as you go.
• Debt payoff and savings goals, with honest arithmetic behind them.
• Bank connection on a paid plan, for US banks, so your spending arrives on its own.

Your money data

Your financial information is used for one thing: coaching you. It is never sold, rented, or shared with advertisers.

If you connect a bank, your banking password goes to Plaid, never to us — and YewSave reads only your transactions, balances and loan details. It cannot move money, and has no ability to make a payment on your behalf.

You can export your transactions to CSV, or delete your account and all of its data, at any time from inside the app.
