Comparison

Cuéntamo vs Monefy: an honest comparison

Monefy is the donut expense tracker: log an expense in two taps and instantly see where your money goes. Cuéntamo is a more complete platform that also tells you how much money you'll have months from now. Neither asks for your bank credentials. Here's which one fits what you're after, no spin.

How they're alike

Both start from the same idea: keeping track of your money without spreadsheets and without handing over your bank credentials. You create your accounts by hand, log transactions by category and see your spending in a ring chart. Both are private: neither connects to your bank, and your data stays yours — no ads, no data selling. If all you want is to log expenses and see where the month went, either will do the job.

How they differ

Monefy is, deliberately, a minimalist tracker: fast, simple and built around a single gesture — tap a slice of the donut and log the expense in two taps. Cuéntamo is a more complete platform that, beyond the day-to-day, covers things Monefy simply doesn't have:

And if you freelance in Spain, there's also a full Spanish tax module — but that's an extra; this comparison is about everyday use.

When Monefy may suit you better

Let's be fair: if all you want is to log expenses as fast as humanly possible and look at the donut, Monefy is hard to beat. The two-tap gesture is beautifully polished, the native app flies on your phone, and syncing through your own Google Drive or Dropbox is straightforward. If you want minimalism and logging speed and nothing more, it's a great choice.

Honest summary. Just logging expenses, minimalist and lightning-fast on your phone, with that iconic donut? Monefy. Want to also know your future balance, split expenses and debts, import your statements, or see your net worth and investments? Cuéntamo. It's minimalism versus platform: pick whichever matches what you need. And you don't have to decide blind — both are free to start.

Frequently asked questions

It depends on what you need. Monefy is a minimalist expense tracker: you log an expense in two taps and instantly see the donut of where your money goes. For sheer simplicity and speed on your phone, it's hard to beat. Cuéntamo is a much more complete platform for everyday finances: balance forecasting up to 24 months, expense splitting and debts, net worth and investments, and statement imports. Both respect your privacy and both have a free plan.
The donut is Monefy's signature circular chart: each slice is a category, and you tap a slice to log an expense in two taps. It's their trademark feature and it's very polished. Cuéntamo also shows your spending by category with ring charts (in the monthly summary and in Analysis), but its focus is broader and less centred on that single quick gesture.
Neither connects to your bank: both put privacy first and work with manual entry. Monefy stores your data on your device and syncs between phones through your own Google Drive or Dropbox. Cuéntamo, besides manual entry, lets you import your bank statements by file (CSV, Excel, ODS) and broker statements too — no bank credentials involved, by design.
Both have a free version. Cuéntamo Más costs €4.99/month (€49.90/year), with an Early Bird price of €3.99/month for early subscribers. Monefy offers the app for free plus a paid Pro version that unlocks unlimited accounts, recurring transactions and advanced filters (pricing depends on the app store and isn't published on their website).
Monefy is a set of native iOS and Android apps, built for the phone and very fast for logging. Cuéntamo is a web app (PWA) that installs on Android and iOS and works just the same on a computer. For typing in a quick expense at a red light, Monefy is nimbler; for sitting down with your accounts, Cuéntamo's web app gives you more room.
