Motivated!

I am so happy that The Beans helps me stay motivated in my financial awareness without adding stress. When I open the app I don’t have anxiety which other apps I have used made me feel.

Check out The Beans!

The Beans has helped me look at my finances in a whole new way. I love the app design and how it gives a clear picture of my budget. It was easy to set up and a plan was developed for me quickly. When something makes my life easier, I absolutely share with my family and friends. Check out The Beans!

Great budgeting app!

I want to budget and have tried many ways on my own. In the past I have been discouraged and quit. Since finding The Beans I have done a much better job and have not lost my motivation! The Beans has really helped me, I am excited!

The Beans

The Beans is well designed, reliable, and user-friendly. Developing a plan with The Beans is so easy. I love opening the app and seeing where I am for the month. I highly recommend it for those who want to work towards their financial goals.

Not great for Entrepreneurs

The app wasn’t able to recognize all of my income flows and set them up as consistent feed. It ended up being moire trouble than it was worth. Pretty disappointed because I was really interested in the idea and spent $40ish on it :(

Pulled $250 from my account

They pulled $250 from my checking account without my permission. I now have a $100 late fee and a derogatory mark when I’m supposed to find a new lease on two months. The app is so buggy that I can’t even get it to pull up the supposed account it transferred the money to. I’m absolutely devastated. Do no trust this company.

Essential and Impactful

This app is an amazing intersection of how technology and easing people’s lives come together. I’m someone who wants to improve my relationship with my money and be more confident with what I do with it as a new college graduate. “The Beans” is a tool that will help me foster that relationship.

I’m excited to see where this app is going and how it will continue positively influence my life! On top of that, you can see how the team is a group of caring people who are coming together to make something accessible for those who really need it.

The interface and features are user friendly, easy to understand, and overall makes me more motivated to be more wise with my income.

I’d definitely recommend it to my friends and family! :) thank you for this app!!

Great app to manage finances

This is a great app that really helps shift your financial habits!

If you want to delete your account info

You can’t. You have to email the company. It’s ridiculous! I do not recommend this app based upon that alone. It’s also inaccurate in tracking my expenses and it’s incorrect in telling me what I’ve spent compared to the prior month.

Definitely worth it!!

I’m happy that I’ve finally found an incredibly useful app to plan my budget. It was super easy to connect my info and make a plan to manage my money from both my jobs. I also get to see all of my expenses laid out on the screen, and the calendar lets me see upcoming bills. All of this definitely helps me as a grad student because I can visualize my budget easier and spend my money a little bit wiser! overall, I’m very pleased with this app!

So confusing

I want to like this app but I’m extremely confused by it. I have a Master’s degree and this app bewilders me. There is no explanation of how it works or what the visuals even mean. I’m hoping I can get some support by posting this, otherwise I’ll be deleting it soon.

Relaxation

Since I have been using The Beans as a financial aid, it has kept my mind at peace. They really make me feel like I have control of my money. I really had to stick to it and now My school loans are all paid off.

Super helpful

Helped put my finances in order.

It is great.

Best decision of my life.

Exactly what I’ve been looking for

I’ve tried a lot of budgeting apps, mint, everydollar, ybab, but they are all so complicated and require so much work.

The Beans does all of the work for me and they’ve created a plan that I’ve been able to stick to. I laid down my debts and have now started saving every month. This app really made a difference for me!

Game Changer!

Before using the Beans my finances were a mess and I had no idea what it meant to take care of them. The beans makes it easy to understand and does all the work for you so you can keep your time doing things you love.

Budget

This app is great to follow a budget. It allows me to keep all my finances in one spot and setting monthly limits for personal expenses.
