Looking for a Mint replacement?

Mint closed in 2024. If you are looking for a replacement with bank sync, budgets by category and bill tracking, here is how Money Manager compares.

Mint was one of the most widely used free budgeting apps in the US until Intuit shut it down in early 2024 and directed users to Credit Karma, which does not offer the same budgeting features. Money Manager covers the core of what Mint did, bank sync, budgets by category, bill tracking and spending reports, with a free tier for manual tracking and a Premium plan for automation. No ads on the web.

The fair version.

Where each one is the better tool, without the sales pitch.

What Mint did well

Mint connected to nearly every US bank, categorized transactions automatically and showed budgets, bills and a credit score in one place, for free. That combination is why it had millions of users, and why its closure left a gap. Credit Karma kept the credit features and net worth but dropped category budgets.

How Money Manager compares

The budgeting and tracking core is comparable: bank sync through Plaid, categories with limits, bills with reminders, reports by period. Money Manager adds things Mint did not have, such as receipt scanning, PDF statement import, shared accounts and an assistant that answers questions from your own data. It does not offer a credit score or linked investment tracking.

The honest trade-off

Mint's bank sync was free because the app showed offers. Money Manager's bank sync is a paid feature and the web app shows no ads. If you prefer to track manually or import statements, the free plan has no bank sync and no ads either.

Verdict

If you used Mint for budgets and spending, Money Manager covers that and more. If you used it mainly for your credit score, look elsewhere for that part.
