Lucky Friday gives you everything you loved about Mint and more. Free to get started, with a permanent free tier, bank sync through Plaid, and budgets that actually fit your life.
Free to use. No credit card required.
When Mint shut down, millions of people lost a tool they had used for years. Most alternatives are either too complex, too expensive, or missing the features you relied on. Lucky Friday was built to be simple, honest, and stress-free.
Connect your checking, savings, credit cards, loans, and investment accounts securely. Transactions import automatically so you always know where your money is going.
Set up budgets that match how you actually get paid. Whether that is biweekly, monthly, or unpredictably, Lucky Friday adapts to your income instead of forcing you into a rigid template.
See the full picture. Lucky Friday tracks your assets and liabilities so you always know your net worth, not just your monthly spending.
Transactions get categorized automatically. Customize the categories, colors, and icons so your budget makes sense to you at a glance.
Lucky Friday uses industry-standard encryption through trusted providers like Plaid. Your login credentials are never stored and you control what is connected at all times.
Not a trial. Lucky Friday has a free tier that does not expire. Upgrade when you want to, not because you have to.
