One SMS in. A tracked expense out.

Your bank already texts you after every payment. Paisa Tracker reads that one message on your device, pulls out the amount, merchant and account — and quietly files it. Watch it happen.

    Your month, already counted

    Open the app and the month is already done: every debit and credit totalled, split into spent, received and this week, with each bank you use counted underneath. You didn’t type a single one of them.

    • Live monthly total
    • Per-bank breakdown
    • Nothing to enter
  2. 02

    A whole month, day by day

    Every date is a tile, shaded by what it cost — red when the day ran away with you, green when it didn’t, a plus where only money came in. Zero-spend days and your best streak are counted at the top.

    • Day-by-day heatmap
    • Zero-spend days
    • Best streak

    Your money personality

    The app reads your habits back to you — peak spending day, top category, impulse ratio, daily average — then shows how much budget is actually left in a live burn-rate ring. Tap any slice to see what’s eating it.

    • Burn-rate ring

    Trends, and the merchants behind them

    Every month plotted against your limit and colour-coded — green under, amber close, red over — so a bad month is impossible to miss. Underneath, the merchants quietly taking the biggest share, ranked.

    • Monthly trend
    • Limit colour-coding
    • Top merchants
  5. 05

    Budgets, category by category

    Set a total for the month and a limit for each category, then watch the bars fill as you spend. Food hitting 100% turns red long before your statement does.

    • Monthly total
    • Per-category limits
    • Live progress

    Cash, and whatever else the SMS missed

    Paid in notes, split a bill, used an account your bank never texts about? Add it in a few seconds — merchant, amount, category, date — and it counts towards your budgets like every automatic one.

    • Add in seconds
    • Debit or credit
    • Counts in budgets
  7. 07

    Categories you invent

    The built-in categories don’t cover every life, so make your own — a subscription, a side project, cash withdrawals. Switch one off and it stops being used without losing any history.

    • Make your own
    • Toggle on / off
    • Delete anytime
  8. 08

    You decide what’s worth a buzz

    Every alert has its own switch — the evening summary, a nudge near your daily limit, budget warnings, the weekly recap, the monthly wrap. Turn one off and the server never sends it; it just waits in the in-app inbox.

    • Switch by switch
    • Off means never sent
    • In-app inbox
  9. 09

    Yours to theme, yours to lock

    Switch between dark and light, pick whether you get pushed at all, and put the whole app behind a fingerprint or a 4-digit PIN. Everything about the account sits at the top of the same screen.

    • Dark & light
    • Biometric + PIN
    • Push on or off

    Every control, nothing buried

    Budgets, the daily limit, your own categories, merchant rules, notifications, export, the uncategorised queue and a full re-read of your inbox — one list, each row with an info button that explains it before you touch it.

    • Merchant rules
    • Re-sync anytime
    • Explained inline

    Tell us what we missed

    Spotted a transaction the parser skipped? Paste the SMS and send it over. It goes straight into making the engine better for everyone — and a thank-you email comes back once it lands.

    • Paste the SMS
    • Improves the parser
    • We write back

What it does

Built to be forgotten about. In the best way.

No receipts to snap, no rows to type, no monthly reconciliation ritual. The work happens the second a transaction does.

⚡

Fully automatic tracking

Every debit and credit lands in the app the moment your bank texts you. No manual entry required, no bank-account linking, nothing to remember — and when you pay in cash, you can still add it yourself.

🏷️

Auto-categorisation that learns

A model sorts each expense into Food, Travel, Shopping and more — and remembers every correction you make. Invent your own categories, or fix a stubborn merchant across every one of its messages at once.

🎯

Budgets that track themselves

Monthly and daily limits, watched live with burn-rate rings and a colour-coded calendar.

🔔

Real-time alerts & weekly recaps

Know the second money leaves, and get a Sunday summary of where the week actually went.

🔒

No bank logins. Ever.

Paisa Tracker never asks for your net-banking credentials, because it doesn't need them. It works from the SMS your bank already sent you — behind a fingerprint and PIN lock, encrypted with AES-256.

Transparency first

SMS access is a big ask. Here's exactly what happens.

Every message is checked on your phone before anything else happens. If it isn't a completed bank transaction, it's dropped on the spot.

Questions

Good things to know

Where can I get Paisa Tracker?

It's live on the Google Play Store — download Paisa Tracker free for Android 8.0+. No ads, no subscription.

How does it track my spending automatically?

It reads your bank's transaction SMS — the debit and credit alerts your bank sends after each payment — and logs the amount, merchant and account for you. No manual entry required, and no bank-account linking — though you can add a cash transaction by hand if you want one tracked.

Does it read my personal messages?

No. Paisa Tracker only processes bank transaction alerts — messages with a payment amount and a debit/credit keyword. Personal chats, OTPs and promotional messages are filtered out on your device and never uploaded.

Do I have to connect my bank account?

Never. Paisa Tracker works entirely from your transaction SMS — there are no bank logins, so your banking credentials are never involved. You can also lock the app behind a fingerprint or PIN.

Is my data private, and can I delete it?

Yes. Your data is AES-256 encrypted, and we never show ads or sell your data. You can delete your account and all data anytime, and read the full privacy policy.

It tracks itself,
so you can live yours.

Free on Google Play. No ads, no subscription, no bank logins — just the SMS your bank already sends you, turned into something useful.
