Go to Set Up
Configure your trip dates, home currency, budget currency, and spending categories. The countdown timer updates automatically.
- Budget Currency — the currency you'll spend on your trip (e.g. EUR)
- Home Currency — your home currency for bookings (e.g. CAD)
Enter Your Bookings
In Set Up → Bookings, log your pre-trip fixed costs — flights, accommodation, transport, activities.
Log Expenses On the Go
Use Log Expenses to record spending as you travel — one row per purchase. Local Amount = trip currency. Home Amount = your home currency.
Monitor the Dashboard
The Dashboard shows a live budget vs. actual chart, spending by category, and a day-by-day breakdown. Everything updates as you log.
Up to 10 — name them in Set Up → Categories.
No — enter both amounts when logging so you control the exact rate paid.
Yes — auto-saves to browser local storage. Persists between sessions.
