YNAB Alternative
The YNAB Alternative Built for European Banks
YNAB is a great budgeting app — but it wasn't built for Europe. WonderMoney connects to your bank natively via Open Banking, tracks your investments alongside your spending, and costs 80% less.
Try every feature free for 14 days. No credit card required.
Why Europeans Outgrow YNAB
No native European bank connections
YNAB added limited UK bank connectivity in 2023, but most European banks are unsupported. You end up importing transactions manually — which defeats the point of automation.
No investment tracking
YNAB tracks spending. It does not track your ETFs, stocks, or investment portfolio. If you invest — and most financially aware Europeans do — you need a separate tool.
Expensive for what Europeans get
YNAB costs $109/year. For European users who get no bank sync and no investments module, that's a poor deal. WonderMoney is €24.90/year with full Open Banking and portfolio tracking included.
