About MintEdge
MintEdge is a free personal finance app designed to help everyday people take control of their money — without complexity, without subscriptions, and without selling your data.
Our Mission
We believe that financial clarity should be accessible to everyone. Most people do not struggle with finances because they lack discipline — they struggle because they lack visibility. MintEdge gives you that visibility: a clear, real-time picture of where your money goes, what you owe, and what you can save.
We built MintEdge because existing finance apps were either too complex, too expensive, or too invasive with user data. Our approach is different: a clean, focused tool that does exactly what you need and nothing you do not.
What MintEdge Does
MintEdge is a comprehensive personal finance tool that covers every aspect of your financial life:
Expense Tracking
Log every transaction in seconds. Categorize spending automatically and see exactly where your money goes each month. Scan receipts with AI to add transactions instantly.
Budget Management
Set monthly budgets by category and track progress in real time. Get visual indicators when you are approaching your limits before you overspend.
Partnership Budgeting
Share finances with a partner or roommate. Split bills with custom ratios and settle balances transparently. Ideal for couples and shared households.
Multi-Currency Support
Track expenses in 20+ currencies with automatic conversion using live exchange rates. Ideal for international spending, travel, and expats managing finances across borders.
Recurring Expenses
Set up fixed monthly obligations — rent, loans, subscriptions, insurance — and auto-generate them each month. Never forget a regular expense again.
Financial Insights
Visualize spending trends over time with charts and category breakdowns. Understand your financial patterns and identify opportunities to save more.
AI Receipt Scanning
Take a photo of any receipt and MintEdge automatically extracts the merchant, amount, date, and category. Add transactions in seconds without manual entry.
Subscription Tracking
See all your recurring subscriptions in one place with renewal dates and total monthly cost. Identify subscriptions you have forgotten about and can cancel.
Our Values
Privacy First
Your financial data is yours. We never sell, share, or monetize your personal information. Zero data sold to third parties — ever.
Free by Default
All core features are free. We believe financial tools should be accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford premium subscriptions.
Simplicity
Finance is already complicated. Your tools should not be. MintEdge is designed to be intuitive from day one, with no learning curve.
Transparency
We are clear about how we make money (advertising), what data we collect, and how we use it. No hidden fees, no surprise charges.
