## What is Two Pennies?

Two Pennies: Where every penny counts and your two cents matter.

Finally, a budgeting app that's actually simple. No bank connections. No automatic imports. No complicated spreadsheets. Just you, your partner, and a shared understanding of where your money goes.

Share your two cents with each other—literally. Communicate on every transaction, stay aligned on spending, and make every penny count toward your goals.

WHY TWO PENNIES?
We believe budgeting should be simple, collaborative, and stress-free. Type in a transaction and it's done. Balance your month to see how close you came to your goals. Start fresh next month. That's it.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Create your budget—name your categories
2. Invite your partner with a simple share code
3. Type in transactions as you spend (takes 5 seconds)
4. Communicate about purchases right in the app
5. Balance your month to see how you did
6. Fresh start next month

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Most budget apps try to do everything automatically. They connect to your bank, categorize transactions for you, and overwhelm you with charts and data.

We believe budgeting works better when you're engaged. When you manually enter each transaction, you're more aware of your spending. When you can comment on purchases, you and your partner stay aligned. When each month is a fresh start, you don't feel defeated by past mistakes.

Two Pennies is intentionally simple. Because budgeting shouldn't be complicated.
