PayChunk is a cash budgeting app that doesn't need your bank account. Budget by paycheck, scan receipts with AI, and track every dollar you spend — all without linking a single financial account. Most budgeting apps want access to your bank. PayChunk doesn't. If you use cash, get tips, work gig jobs, or simply don't trust apps with your bank credentials — PayChunk is built for you.
