Getting started

What is Kinance?

Kinance is a money tracking app for individuals, couples and families. You log spending by tapping, snapping a receipt or pasting a bank text, share budgets with up to 5 people, and give kids aged 8 to 16 their own app with Kip. It runs in any browser, phone first, with no bank passwords needed.

Do I need a card to try Kinance?

Not to start. Your 14-day trial includes everything, sharing and kids mode too. When you choose a plan, Dodo Payments saves your card, but you aren’t charged until your 14 free days are over, and you can cancel before then.

Does Kinance connect to my bank?

No, and it never asks for bank passwords. You add entries yourself, by tapping, scanning a receipt or pasting the text your bank sends. That keeps you in control and works with any bank in any country.

How do kids use it?

A parent creates a kid profile with a username and PIN. Kids get their own simple app with Kip, wallets and goal jars. They only see their own money; you see everything they log.

Can my partner and I use one account?

Each of you has your own sign-in and you share a workspace. The Family plan covers up to 5 people, kids included.

What happens after the trial?

Your data stays. Without a plan you can still sign in, view, download or delete everything; adding new entries needs a plan.

Pricing and billing

Why are there rupee and dollar prices?

Kinance is made in Sri Lanka and priced fairly for it: the rupee prices are fixed. Everywhere else the price is in US dollars, and Dodo Payments can charge your card in your own currency (Indian rupees, euros, pounds and about 80 more) at the day’s rate. The website shows an estimate; checkout shows the exact amount. The plans are identical.

Who takes the payment?

Dodo Payments, our merchant of record, charges your card and sends the invoice. Local tax may be added at checkout. Cancel any time in Settings.

Can I cancel or switch plans?

Cancel any time from Settings on the web; a cancelled plan keeps working until the end of the period you paid for. You can move between Personal and Family there too, and your history comes with you.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, in full if you ask within 14 days of any charge.

Couples and families

Do we both need to pay?

No. One Family plan covers the workspace; your partner joins on it for free.

Can I keep some accounts private?

Yes. Keep your personal workspace to yourself and share only the joint one.

What if we break up?

Either of you can leave a workspace, and the owner can hand it over. Your own data stays yours, and you can download it any time.

How many people can join?

The Family plan covers up to 5 people per workspace, kids included, and two workspaces. You can add more places with a members pack.

Do kids need an email address?

No. You create their profile with a username and PIN, or share a join code from your workspace.

Can grandparents or a helper log expenses?

Yes. Invite them as members of the workspace; they log, you see it.

Kids

Does my child need a phone?

Kids mode works on any phone, tablet or computer browser. They sign in with a username and a four-digit PIN.

Is real money involved?

No. Kinance tracks money; it doesn’t hold it. Kids log the cash or card money they really have.

Is there an extra cost for kids?

No. Kids take a place in your Family plan workspace, which covers up to 5 people.

What age is kids mode for?

It’s designed for 8 to 16. Younger kids can use it with a parent alongside.

Does Kinance hold my child’s money?

No. Kinance tracks money; it isn’t a bank or a card. Kids log the cash or card money they really have.

Can my child see our family spending?

No. Kids only see their own wallets, goals and entries.

Features

Which receipts work?

Printed shop and restaurant receipts photographed flat and in focus work best. You always check the result before saving.

Who reads the receipt?

Kinance sends the photo to Google’s Gemini service to read it, under its API terms, and doesn’t keep the photo. See the privacy policy for details.

Is scanning included in every plan?

Yes, in Personal and Family, and during the free trial.

Can budgets roll over to next month?

Not yet. Budgets are monthly limits that start fresh each month.

Do budgets need the Family plan?

Budgets are in both plans. Sharing them with other people needs Family.

How do alerts work?

Kinance checks each budget as entries come in and shows an alert at 80% and when a budget is over.

Is the Personal plan just for one person?

Yes. Personal is for you alone, across up to two workspaces, for example everyday money and a side project.

Can I upgrade later if I move in with someone?

Yes. Email [email protected] and we will move you to Family, then invite them to your workspace; your history comes with you.

Which currencies can I use?

Kinance shows amounts in 16 currencies. You pay for Kinance in LKR or USD.
