Group spending by Necessity, Commitment, and Lifestyle. AI FINANCIAL COACH Get personalised financial guidance in English or Bahasa Malaysia. Ask about EPF/KWSP, ASB, PTPTN, takaful, LHDN tax relief โ€” the AI coach understands Malaysian context. Scoped to personal finance only. SAVINGS GOALS Set financial goals for anything โ€” emergency fund, Raya, holiday, new phone. Track progress with visual milestones and auto-calculate how much to save per month. RECEIPT SCANNER Snap a photo of any receipt and auto-extract the amount. Skip the manual entry and quick-add to your transactions. SHARED BUDGETS Partner mode โ€” manage finances together with your spouse or partner. Shared categories, goals, and individual + combined spending views.

SMART CATEGORIES THAT LEARN Start typing a merchant and RinggitWise suggests the category โ€” 250+ Malaysian merchant names recognised, from Petronas and 99 Speedmart to kopitiam, pasar, and e-wallet reloads. Correct it once and it remembers that shop for next time. Need a category we don't have? Create your own, with your own name and icon, in English and Bahasa Malaysia. SPENDING INSIGHTS See what actually changed each month, per category, in plain language โ€” "you spent 32% less on makan luar than last month." Calculated on your phone from your own transactions. FRUGAL STREAKS Every day you keep spending under your daily budget allowance builds a streak, with badges at 7, 14, 30, 60, and 90 days.
