Hey everyone 👋️

After several months of app updates, I’m happy to announce DAS Budget is officially being released 🥳🎉
I’m releasing DAS with Premium and Standard tiers. Standard starts at
$3.99/mo
(or $3.33/mo at $39.99 billed yearly) and Premium starts at
$6.99/mo
(or $5.83/mo at $69.99 billed yearly). Each plan allows you to link
up to 10 financial institutions
at
$0.50/mo
each so you pay for exactly what you need.
I'll be enforcing subscriptions at
midnight Dec 1st
Pacific Time ⏲. Users will need a DAS Budget subscription to continue with uninterrupted service. All subscriptions come with a
1-month free trial
so you can make sure you’re content with your decision to keep using DAS!
🔔 I'll be sending periodic updates and push notifications about the release date and where to download the official app version.
Below will include info on what comes in a DAS subscription and FAQs.

High Priority Features
The features listed below are top priorities for DAS Budget. Users have given
feedback
and I want to address issues where they are unable to
see where money is moving
within buckets. I will also be adding features to
bridge the gap between syncs
with your financial institutions!
  • Be able to see when DAS (or you) move money in or out of a bucket to know exactly where your money is going
  • Be able to view the summary for a Funding Schedule execution
  • See how much money DAS moves to each bucket of a Funding Schedule
  • Be able to input a transaction in
    real-time
    and let DAS match it to a transaction once Plaid/MX eventually syncs your bank accounts
  • This will be useful in the situations where your financial institution is having outages or you just want to get an up-to-date number on your Free-to-Spend or Bucket amount
  • It's perfect to add paycheck information on payday without needing to wait for a sync from your bank. Alternatively, it's handy in situations where you want to know if you can afford that 3rd large turkey leg at Disney from the 🍟Fun Food bucket
  • Add a force refresh button for Plaid-backed connections to immediately reach out to your institution
  • This will allow users to get up-to-date information in the times where it matters most!
  • Premium subscribers will get a 10 credit per 30d allowance
  • All subscribers will be able to purchase syncs from DAS as each force sync costs DAS money to execute

FAQ
What's a linked financial institution?
A
linked
financial institution is any bank, credit union, or financial company where you've logged into to pull transaction and balance info. DAS will count each login info as
1
linked institution towards your credits. You're able to link all accounts associated with that login (checking, savings, joint accounts, credit card) as
1
usage against your institution limit.
Will we be getting a push notification when it’s time to redownload on IOS and purchase a subscription?
YES!
When do I need a subscription?
You'll need a subscription by
Dec 1
. Free trials count as a subscription, so you're able to subscribe to DAS on Nov 30 and use your free trial for the month of December.
What happens if I don't subscribe by Dec 1?
DAS will disconnect all your accounts from Plaid or MX. Your accounts, buckets, funding schedules, and transactions
will be left untouched
, but you
won't receive any new updates
from your institution. You'll have to subscribe and re-connect your account to continue to get transaction updates.
Does my old Simple or BBVA connection count towards the limit?
No! DAS only charges based on institutions actively linked to Plaid or MX. As Simple and BBVA are both shutdown, DAS excludes both banks from your institution limit.
Does my Monzo account count towards the limit?
No! DAS doesn't pay a fee to connect to directly connect to Monzo so there is no need to charge you for it!
Where can I download the official release?
Android users are able to continue with their current installation from the Google Play store.
iOS users will soon be able to download the official release from the App Store (👈 watch this space) once the app is reviewed and accepted. We'll be moving away from TestFlight once released.
👫 How do subscriptions work for shared Budgets?
A budget will inherit the subscription of the budget owner. You can distinguish between owners by checking who has a gold star next to their name.
All linked accounts attached to that budget will gain features for the tier that the owner has subscribed to.

👪 Family Plans?
DAS has yet to integrate with Apple’s Family Plan and has not included pricing for it yet either. While I’m exploring this feature, sharing a subscription is still possible for couples!
Only one member needs a DAS subscription to link accounts in DAS. Once all individual/joint accounts are linked, you can simply invite your significant other to your budget and they’ll be able to use the app for that budget!
But, if the SO wants a separate budget completely hidden from you, they'd have to get their own DAS subscription. The goal is to officially support family subscriptions.
