Building Momentum for Financial Success

The Streaks feature is designed to help you build consistent financial habits by tracking your daily engagement with your budget. Streaks not only motivate you to stay on track but also reward you for maintaining a regular routine that brings you closer to your financial goals.


What Are Streaks?

Streaks represent the number of consecutive days you’ve successfully followed through on your budgeting tasks. Every day that you check in, track expenses, or meet your targets, your streak grows. The longer the streak, the more momentum you build, reinforcing your dedication to financial discipline.


Why Streaks Matter

Streaks help turn budgeting into a daily habit. By maintaining a streak, you are committing to consistent engagement, which is essential for long-term success. Each streak is a visual reminder of your commitment, and it helps to solidify budgeting as a natural part of your everyday life.

How to Unlock Streaks

  • Daily Check-Ins: Engage with your budget every day by logging expenses, reviewing your finances, or adjusting your allocations.

  • Consistency: Make daily budgeting a non-negotiable part of your routine to maintain and extend your streak.

  • Celebrations: Hit streak milestones (such as a 7-day streak, 21-day streak, or even beyond) and unlock special badges as recognition for your efforts.

Stay Motivated

Every day you budget, you strengthen your financial habits. Reaching new streak milestones is a reason to celebrate and a reminder that you're mastering your finances, one day at a time. And if life throws you a curveball, don’t worry—start again and build a new streak!

Make each day count. Keep your streak alive, and watch your financial health improve!


Protect Your Streak with Frost

Sometimes life gets busy, and you may miss a day of checking in with your budget. That's where Frost comes in. You can accumulate up to 3 Frost points based on your engagement with the app. These points act as a safety net, protecting your streak from breaking when you miss a day. With fully loaded Frost, you can keep your momentum alive and safeguard your streak for a few days, allowing you to stay on track with your financial goals, even when things don’t go as planned.
