Budgeting that finally makes sense. Most apps show you where your money went. Potshare helps you decide where it goes next by splitting one budget across separate savings pots, so every goal you care about grows at the same time. Think of your pots like digital envelopes. You choose how much you can save each payday, and Potshare divides it across all of them automatically. Your holiday, your rent buffer, your emergency fund, all moving forward together, each with its own finish date. ONE BUDGET, MANY POTS Give every pound a place to go. Set what you save each week, fortnight or month, and Potshare splits it across your goals instantly. No spreadsheets. No maths. SAVE TOGETHER Create a shared Together pot and invite friends, family or housemates. Everyone chips in toward the same goal, sees the total climb in real time, and keeps each other going with built-in chat and reactions. Perfect for group trips, shared gifts, rent, or a joint safety net. NO BANK CONNECTION, EVER Potshare never links to your bank or sees your balance. It is a private planner you control. No account numbers, no open banking, no risk. REACH GOALS FASTER See exactly when each pot will be full, get gentle payday reminders, and keep a complete history of every contribution. EVERYTHING YOU GET FREE * Up to 3 goals and 1 Together pot * Automatic budget splitting across pots * Payday reminders * Full payment history and archive * Backup and restore your data * Works offline with no account needed GO FURTHER WITH PREMIUM A single one-time purchase.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data stays on your device until you choose to sync. Optional anonymous analytics can be switched off at any time. Delete everything in one tap. We never sell your data, and there are no ads. Potshare is a personal budgeting and savings planner, not a bank. It does not hold your money or connect to financial institutions.
