- What is SMS budgeting?
- SMS budgeting lets you log expenses by texting BudgeFlow instead of opening an app. Each message becomes a categorized transaction on your dashboard in seconds.
- What counts as one SMS segment?
- One SMS segment is up to 160 plain-text characters. Messages or replies with emojis or non-ASCII characters use Unicode encoding and split into 67-character segments. Plain texts that exceed 160 characters split into 153-character segments. Each segment counts against your monthly limit, even if the message arrives as one continuous text.
- How much does BudgeFlow cost?
- BudgeFlow Basic is $5.99/month ($60/year) and includes 100 SMS segments per month. BudgeFlow Pro is $10.99/month ($110/year) and includes 250 SMS segments per month plus team workspaces, shared budgets, and project tracking. BudgeFlow Business is $19.99/month ($200/year) and also includes 250 SMS segments per month plus receipt OCR and invoice parsing.
- Is there a free trial?
- You can create a free account and explore the dashboard with sample data. SMS expense logging and budget automations require a Basic or Pro subscription.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. You can cancel your subscription from the in-app billing page at any time. You keep access until the end of your current billing period.
- Do you support shared family or team budgets?
- Yes. BudgeFlow Pro includes team workspaces with shared budgets, role-based access, and project tracking for couples, families, and small teams.
- Does BudgeFlow work on WhatsApp?
- Yes. Pro and Business plans include WhatsApp messaging — log expenses, run SUMMARY, BALANCE, IOU and bill splits straight from WhatsApp with the same commands you use over SMS.
