Mint.com Is Closing--Here Are The 5 Best Alternatives

I don’t know how but you’ve managed to package an unbiased analysis that is more entertaining than the sensationalized segment of economic and financial news. Thank you for your efforts to be the signal and not the noise. I understand that the economy is currently in a downturn and that we must wait for things to get better

I think it's a shame that Mint is closing down. These alternatives are good, but in my opinion, they don't beat Mint because some of these that can be compared to Mint, have a subscription cost that needs to be taken into consideration. Mint being what it was while also being free, was really good.

I am devastated. I've been with Mint for at least 15 years. I have my systems in place, my categories set up for just how I want them. Nooo. I can't believe i have to start over. I'm not excited about trying to make Empower work, even though I'm already in their ecosystem for retirement purposes - it seems so bare bones. And while it will track your expenses and break them down, it doesn't seem like you can set up a budget. Ughhhhhhhhhh. Also, how did I not hear about this until now? I definitely didn't get any notice from Mint!

Hi DoughRoller! It’s so great to discover you on youtube! I watched you on your podcast and learn so much. I’m so happy you’re on Yt now!!! Thank you for all the great content! Hope you’re doing well!!!!

This made me mad when I heard Mint was closing down. Why? Sell it to somebody else. I heard Credit Karma won't have a way to set budgets and categorize spending like Mint does. I won't be using Credit Karma if that's the case.

I appreciate your approach to teaching.. To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough, we just need to hold onto our hopes and wait to see how things turn out because market movements are almost always unpredictable. In my portfolio, I'm noticing more red than green.

Just a reminder if you are not paying for the app, you are the product.

Couple of additional thoughts:
1. Empower does not allow you to create detailed budgets. Its takes your spending and just groups all that
2. Simplifi does not allow for "rollover" budgeting. This is where the amount under or over budget from prior periods is accounted for in future periods. This is necessary for budgeting where things are not fixed (i.e. entertainment; electric bill)
3. Detailed budgeting is not moving to Credit Karma. Non-starter

Crying shame been with mint since 2010 I am going to miss the trends section and net income section I have not cried so hard since Microsoft money closed I was down and out when I stumbled across mint we fell in love now I am a lost soul out in the desert kicking rocks so much data gone why why?😢

Thank you for this. I really appreciate it

Been using Quicken since 1989 in the old DOS format. Wow, 34 years and still happy with it.

when i heard mint was shutting down i panicked but it was nice to see a familiar face (Rob Berger) show up as one of the top results

I need a simple budget system. Mint was it...the budget tab with color coded green, yellow, red with custom monthly, quarterly, or whatever time period goals was super good plus "roll over" option for things that aren't monthly but more one month less the next month, etc...does any system out there have that budget with category simplicity that Mint has?????? Help!!

Thank you! This was helpful! We have a year (to the end of 2024) to move our Mint info. I'm considering YNAB & maybe Pocketguard - I'd love to get your feedback on these in comparison to the 5 you presented.

Can Treasuries be tracked through Treasury Direct linking in any of these apps?

What do you think of Bantivity? Which one of the 5 softwares that you suggested has reporting capabilities?

Let me mention that on the Monarch webpage they say they are launching in Canada soon, there's a waitlist going on there. That's useful because it means that they would probably commit to making most, if not all, bank and investments account compatible (which was working good enough with Mint, what a shame)

Nice, short no water description, thanks

Thanks for the update we use mint and didn’t know this.

For those of us who used Mint for many years, do any of the replacement products you mentioned (or others) have a way to import our historic Mint data? I've used Mint since 2010. I'd like to find a replacement product that allows me to import all that data, so I can see reporting/tracking of my finances all the way back to 2010. Thank you!
