Our app allows you to set up helpful alerts that notify you when your account balances are running low or when your spending exceeds a set limit. These features ensure you stay on top of your finances and avoid unwanted surprises.


Balance Alert: Keep an eye on your finances by setting up a balance alert for your savings and checking accounts. This alert will notify you when your account balance falls below a set threshold. It’s a helpful tool to ensure you have enough funds to cover upcoming expenses and avoid overdrafts.

  • How it Works: Set a specific balance amount that you don’t want to fall below. When your balance nears or drops under this amount, the app will send you an alert, keeping you informed about your financial standing.

  • Purpose: This helps you avoid unexpected situations where your balance is too low, keeping your finances secure and avoiding surprises.


Spending Alerts for Credit Card Accounts

Spending Alert: For credit cards, you can set a spending alert to ensure you don’t exceed your spending limits or budget. This alert activates when your spending nears or surpasses a predetermined amount, helping you stay within your financial plan.

  • How it Works: Set a spending limit, and the app will notify you once you are approaching or have exceeded that limit.

  • Purpose: Helps prevent overspending and financial mishaps, ensuring you maintain control over your credit card usage.


By using these alert features, you can stay informed about your account balances and spending habits, helping you make proactive financial decisions.
