Income Tracking
Monitor income sources — manual entries or bank transactions — with expected vs actual analytics and trend charts.
Overview
Income Tracking lets you monitor all income sources — both from Plaid-synced bank deposits and manual entries. It provides month-over-month trends, per-source breakdowns, and expected vs actual comparisons.
Adding Income
Click + Add Income on the Income page to open the Add Income dialog. Choose one of two modes:
Enter manually
Fill in the description, amount, date, and optional source/employer. Toggle This is recurring income to set a frequency and starting date so future payments appear in your cash-flow forecasts.
From a transaction
Search your bank transactions by description or merchant. Selecting a transaction pre-fills all fields. Any existing transactions in your history that share the same source pattern are also marked as income automatically. Optionally add a recurring schedule for future forecasting.
From a transaction detail
Open any transaction from the Transactions page, then click Add as Income in the Details section. The dialog opens pre-filled with that transaction’s details so you can confirm and optionally set up a recurring schedule.
Income Sources
- Bank-synced — Transactions pulled from Plaid that you or a rule have marked as income. Shown with a Bank badge.
- Manual — Income entries you created directly, including backfilled recurring transactions.
Income Rules
Define expected recurring income (e.g., "Paycheck from Acme Corp, $3,200 biweekly"). The system compares actual deposits against these rules to flag missed or unexpected payments. Rules are available on paid plans.
Removing income
- Bank-synced sources — Removing marks the transactions as non-income but leaves them in your transaction history. New matching deposits from your bank are not affected and will need to be re-marked if desired.
- Manual sources — You can either remove from income tracking (keeps the transactions) or permanently delete the manual entries.
Analytics
- Summary cards — Current month, last month, and average income at a glance.
- Income over time — Line chart showing monthly income with expected overlay from your recurring records.
- Source breakdown — Per-month breakdown by income source shown as chart tooltips.
- Notifications — Optional in-app alert when income is received.
