Don't spend. Mint gold. SpendZero turns every no-spend day into a gold coin: watch them pile up in your Coin Vault, fill your year on the Mint Calendar and see what a year of not spending could be worth. Streaks, XP, quests, badges and a living wealth tree make it a game you actually want to win. Doing a no-buy month, a low-buy year or No-Spend January, or just trying to stop impulse buying? SpendZero makes every day you don't spend feel like a win. NEW IN 2.0 • Coin Vault: each sealed day drops a gold coin into a glass jar you can tilt and shake • Mint Calendar: your whole year in gold coins, brighter on the days you kept more • Savings forecast, all-new charts, and what your savings could buy • Monthly Recap: a story of your month, ready to share • Seal today from your Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, Control Center or Siri • A living wealth tree: day and night, the seasons, lights in December • Unlock Gold, Emerald and Midnight app icons as you level up A GAME YOU WIN BY NOT SPENDING Mark a no-spend day and it's sealed with a gold coin.

It grows with every level, hangs gold coins as your savings add up and follows your real day, from sunrise to moonlit nights.
