Money gone before payday β€” again? Tuckle helps you give every dollar a job, so you always know what's safe to spend. Tuckle turns the viral β€œcash stuffing” method into a beautiful, private budgeting app. Instead of one confusing balance, you create colorful pockets (digital envelopes) β€” Groceries, Eating out, Gas, Fun β€” and β€œstuff” each paycheck across them.

Stuff your paycheck β€” drop your income into each pocket and watch β€œleft to stuff” hit $0. 3. Spend from the pocket β€” log it in a tap and see exactly what’s left. 4.
