Why Allocated

Budgeting that fits
a fixed income.

Envelope budgeting is the simplest way to make a fixed paycheck work. You decide where every dollar goes before you spend it.

💰
One price, forever
Pay $29 once. No renewals, no price increases, no monthly charge. Budgeting software that doesn't cost you money every month.
✉️
Envelope budgeting
Assign every dollar a job before the month starts. When the envelope is empty, you're done spending in that category. Simple, proven, effective.
🔒
Your data stays put
Everything lives in a single file on your Mac. No account to create, no server that holds your financial data, no breach risk.
Features

Every tool you need.
