Support Goldy

Goldy is free and will stay that way. If the app helps you day to day, you can help the project keep going, but only if you feel like it.

  • Optional
  • One-off payment
  • No subscription

Why support Goldy?

Goldy grew out of a simple idea: to offer a clear, friendly budgeting tool that helps you see where you stand without judging or complicating things. No jargon and no intimidating spreadsheets: a companion who keeps you company through the month.

Goldy is also built to respect your data. Your budget can stay on your device, with no account required, and Goldy never connects to your bank.

The app can be used for free, with no subscription: the essential features are available to everyone. Keeping a project like this going still has a cost, in time as well as in services: a website to host, updates to publish, a Web and Windows app to develop further.

That is what support is for: helping to continue Goldy’s development and to cover part of its costs. It is never a condition for using it.

What is your support used for?

Your support helps the project as a whole: it is not earmarked for a specific expense. Here is what keeps Goldy going day to day.

What your support changes, and what it does not

  • No subscription

    Each payment is one-off. Nothing is charged afterwards.

  • No reserved benefits

    No feature, no content and no benefit is unlocked by supporting. Goldy stays the same for everyone.

  • No card details held by Goldy

    Payment takes place on Stripe’s page. Goldy never receives your bank card details.

  • No link with your budget

    Support neither uses nor reads the amounts in your budget.

Thank you

Thank you to everyone who chooses to help the project. And if you use Goldy, you are already keeping it going: that is a lovely way to support it too.

These payments are not presented as giving entitlement to any tax benefit.
