Setting a trip budget

Set a budget, use your own categories, and see how much you can spend each day.

Set the budget

1. Open the trip.
2. Click Edit trip.
3. Find Budget and set your total. To be more specific, set an amount for each category too.

Your own categories

Every trip starts with Flights, Hotels, Dining, Activities, and Other. Add your own, like Shopping or Ski passes:

• For one trip: in Edit trip, under Budget.
• For every new trip: in Settings, under Budget categories. Existing trips keep their own list.

What counts toward spending

Costs from across the trip add up automatically:

• Flight prices
• Hotel total costs
• Costs on activities, dining, and transit
• Expenses you log

When you add a cost, Counts toward sets which category it belongs to.

The Budget panel

• Total spent and how much of your budget is left.
• How much you can spend each day. For example, "With what you've already spent, you can spend around $120 a day for the 5 days left." Before the trip starts, it's spread over the whole trip.
• By day: what you spent each day, next to an even split of your budget.
• By person: what each person owes. See Splitting costs with your group.
• By category: a chart and a list of spending per category. See Reading the spending chart.

Currency

With PRO you can pick a trip currency and enter costs in the currency you paid. See Setting a trip currency.
