Money-saving apps to make you richer
Words: Anthony Keane Producer: Grace McKinnon
Technology’s rapid takeover of people’s lives has made it way too simple to spend money, but there’s a growing army of apps that aim to help defend your household finances.
Here are the best apps to save you cash.
Why not start with the Australian Taxation Office app to keep yourself out of trouble and make tax time easier?
The ATO app allows you to record tax-deductible expenses, store photos of receipts, and access ATO tools and calculators.
Pocketbook syncs your financial products such as bank accounts and loans, builds budgets and handles bill reminders and recurring payments.
If you’re constantly missing bill deadlines then getting slugged penalties or losing pay-on-time discounts, Getreminded can be a handy money saver.
State automobile associations such as the RAA, RACQ and NRMA have apps that offer real-time fuel pricing.
Other apps such as Petrol Spy and Fuel Map Australia use crowd sourcing and have been positively reviewed.
Friends and roommates can use Splitwise to split expenses, keep track of who owes who, and then settle with each other.
The Cashrewards app lets people buy from 1700 retailers and get 7 per cent back on average.
Ride share comparison app Placie shows many ways to get from A to B including public transport, taxis, limos, ride share services and airport shuttles. Some fares can be booked on the app too.
Finspo wants to help people pay off their home loan faster, and its apps outlines all loans from any lender complete with rates, fees and interest paid. It sends alerts when rates change or fees are charged, and includes some borrower education tools.
Your bank, credit union or other financial institution will have its own app that lets you check accounts, pay bills, transfer money and often track spending.
