Does Envelope Budget have a free trial?

Yes. After a short setup preview, first-time subscribers get a 7-day Pro trial (card required). Pro is $12/month or $120/year. Pro+ is $16/month or $160/year.

Question 3

Who is Envelope Budget for?

Hourly workers, shift workers, freelancers, and households with irregular income who want envelope budgeting tied to pay dates—not calendar-month autopilot.

Does Envelope Budget sync with my bank?
