6 Web Based Personal Finance Tools
I reported that the Quicken Online now goes free for everyone. Actually, there are many free online personal financial tools. Those finance tools are thought to be very useful for customers to check their daily spending, pay bills, and set budget. The difficult part is finding the right tool to fit your needs. Hereby I introduce 6 popular web based personal finance tools that might be of help to you.
Mint
Website: www.mint.com
Mint is a free web-based financial management service. The primary service provided by Mint is to track bank, credit card, investment, and loan transactions and balances through a simplified user interface. Mint is very popular because of its simple setup and easy to use budgeting tools. After you give Mint your online account information, Mint can automatically retrieves your latest financial data from your online financial institutions. And you can set how often you want it to report to you. Mint can do a lot of hard work to help you track your spending, make budgets and set alerts. If you want to use a online service to track your spending, Mint is the top choice.
Yodlee
Website: www.yodlee.com
Yodlee provides account aggregation and other online financial services. Yodlee allows users to see their credit card, bank, investment, email, travel reward accounts on one screen. Perhaps, Yodlee is the most popular free online financial service. Yodless is also famous for offering mobile banking feature. The Yodlee MoneyCenter is a popular web application that allows consumers to manages their finances online. It is a free web application that provides much of the popular personal finance functions of Intuit’s Quicken with features such as bill payment, expenses tracking, and investment management. As a matter of fact, Bank of America’s My Portfolio service is powered by Yodlee. If you want to get all of your personal finance in a single place, Yodless is a good choice.
Buxfer
Website: www.buxfer.com
Buxfer is also a free online personal finance software for budgeting and expense management. You can even transfer your money online using Buxfer. Most interesting part is buxfer can track the transactions for a group. The group can then split bills based on the summary from Buxfer. Buxfer also has lot of fantastic web applications which can be used on iPhone, facebook, Google and other mobile devices. But, to be honest, I don’t trust buxfer very much. It’s more like a study-group based product.
Geezeo
Website: www.geezeo.com
Geezeo is a free online personal fiance management software. It provides free budgeting tools, financial advice, and even a forum for members to discuss about. Geezeo also provide some finance products like credit cards, checking accounts, savings accounts, CDs, loans and even mortgages. The Geezeo is not merely a personal finance tool. But the service is not so great as Mint and Yodlee.
Wesabe
Website: www.wesabe.com
Wesabe helps users track spending and set financial goals. The coolest part of Wesabe is it can provide your personal date and then compare to others”. In this way, you can find out how to save a penny! You can even share your idea on how to spend smarter at the community of Wesabe. Wesabe also has a team of personal finance adviser to answer question and propose ideas in the community. My only worry is as they indicate”We do this by aggregating and analyzing our community members’ personal financial data, and showing tips — recommendations to get the most from our money.” So your personal financial information seems not safe there.
Quicken Online
This is the last one I want to introduce here because I just covered the Quicken Online two days ago at here.
