More about Trip Budget Planner
A budget is useful when you can see it next to what you spend. Trip Tracka lets you plan an amount for the trip, organise the expected costs by category and keep an emergency buffer.
As you record expenses, the budget view helps you spot the categories running ahead of plan. Add recurring costs or income when the journey lasts longer than a short holiday.
Use the numbers as a guide, then adjust the trip plan when the real costs change.
