About

Propina Budget

Read full description

Propina Budget is the budgeting app built for people who live on tips. Most budgeting apps assume a steady paycheck. Tipped workers don't have one: some nights are great, some are slow, and taxes are easy to forget until they hurt. Propina Budget fixes that with one simple habit: log your shift, and your take-home instantly splits into envelopes you choose. THE DAILY LOOP • Log a shift in seconds: card tips, cash tips, tip-out, and hours. • Watch your take-home fan out into four envelopes: Taxes, Fixed bills, Savings, and Free spend. • Open the dashboard any time to see exactly where your money stands this month. BUILT FOR TIPPED INCOME • Set-aside suggestions by state, so taxes don't sneak up on you. • Your envelope split is yours, you can adjust the percentages any time. • Taxes and Savings carry over month to month; Bills and Free spend reset, so each month starts clean. • Shift analytics: your best night, your average per hour, and how your jobs compare. • Track multiple jobs: the restaurant, the delivery app, all in one place. • A month-end forecast learns your day-of-week patterns and projects where you'll land. • Quarterly tax estimates with deadline reminders, and a tax-ready PDF report you can export or email anytime. SIMPLE, PRIVATE, YOURS • No accounts and no ads. Your data lives on your phone and backs up to your own iCloud. • Protect the app with an optional PIN and hide your amounts with a tap. • Optional shift reminders, full Dark Mode, and a home-screen widget. • Available in English and Spanish. Propina Budget unlocks with a monthly or annual subscription, with a 7-day free trial. Your payment stays with Apple, we never see your card details. Tax figures shown in the app are estimates to help you plan, not tax advice. Start with your next shift. Watch your money finally make sense.
