Best Mint Alternative in 2026: What Actually Works
Mint shut down in March 2024, leaving millions scrambling for alternatives. Here's what actually works in 2026, with honest pricing, US bank support details, and real comparisons.
If you used Mint, you probably remember exactly where you were when you heard it was shutting down. It was free, it was simple, and it just worked, then in March 2024, Intuit killed it and pointed everyone to Credit Karma instead.
Two years on, people still message me looking for something that fills that gap. Here's my honest read on what actually works in 2026: what's worth paying for, what isn't, and where Waypoint Budget fits (and where it doesn't).
Quick Answer
What It Actually Looks Like
Here's what Waypoint Budget looks like on your phone:
Dashboard Overview

Why Mint Died
The short version: Intuit acquired Credit Karma in 2020 for $8.1 billion. By 2023, they decided maintaining two free personal finance products didn't make sense. So they shut down Mint and funneled users to Credit Karma.
The problem? Credit Karma is a credit monitoring tool, not a budgeting app. It tracks your credit score and recommends financial products (that's how it makes money). It does not do what Mint did: budgeting, spending tracking, bill management, or financial goal setting.
So millions of people lost their go-to budgeting tool overnight. And the alternatives landscape? It's gotten better since 2024, but it's still confusing.

What People Miss About Mint
Before comparing alternatives, let's be specific about what we're trying to replace:
What Made Mint Work
- Completely free. No premium tiers, no paywalls on core features.
- Automatic bank sync. Connect Chase, BofA, Wells Fargo and see everything in one place.
- Budget categories. Set spending limits and get alerts when you're close.
- Bill reminders. Never miss a payment.
- Credit score. Free monitoring built right in.
- Simple interface. Not overwhelming, not trying to do too much.
The honest truth: nothing replaces all of this for free. Mint was ad-supported and made money by recommending financial products. The alternatives either charge a subscription or compromise on features. But several come close, and a couple are genuinely better in some ways.
The Best Mint Alternatives in 2026
1. Waypoint Budget (Best Free Alternative)
What Mint Users Will Love:
- Actually free tier (not a 30-day trial)
- All major US banks supported via Plaid
- Smart Money Coach (free: 5 messages/day)
- Clean, simple interface
- Receipt scanning and CSV import
- Group Budgets pool flexible categories (every plan)
What's Different from Mint:
- No credit score tracking (yet)
- Bank sync requires Plus ($7.99/mo)
- Newer app, built after Mint with lessons learned
Real talk: I built Waypoint Budget, so yes, I'm biased. But here's why I built it: Mint disappeared and everything else was either $15+/month or didn't have a usable free tier. The free tier is genuinely functional: unlimited manual transactions, all budget categories, Smart Money Coach, receipt scanning, CSV import. If you want automatic bank sync with Chase, BofA, Wells Fargo, or any other US bank, that's $7.99/month, still cheaper than every competitor with bank sync.
Best for: People who want a free budgeting app that doesn't expire after 30 days, with the option to add bank sync later.
2. YNAB (You Need A Budget) - Best Methodology
Pros:
- Best budgeting methodology (zero-based)
- Reliable bank sync with US banks
- Strong community and educational resources
- Native mobile apps (iOS and Android)
Cons:
- Expensive ($14.99/mo or $109/year)
- Steep learning curve (not like Mint at all)
- No free tier (34-day trial only)
Best for: People who want to fundamentally change how they manage money. YNAB is a system, not just a tracker. If Mint felt passive to you and you want more control, YNAB delivers. But it's a commitment, both financially and in terms of learning the methodology.
3. Monarch Money (Closest to Mint)
Pros:
- Closest to Mint's full feature set
- Clean interface and mobile apps
- Investment tracking and net worth
- Couples/household sharing features
Cons:
- No free tier (7-day trial only)
- Billed monthly, Core works out to $179.88/year, nearly double the annual price
- No built-in money coaching features
Best for: Former Mint power users who want the closest experience to what they had, and don't mind paying for it. Monarch runs two tiers, Core ($14.99/mo or $99.99/year) and an annual-only Plus at $199/year, and bills in USD. The interface will feel familiar, and couples especially benefit from the household features.
4. Goodbudget (Best Envelope System)
Pros:
- Free tier available (limited envelopes)
- Simple envelope budgeting concept
- Syncs between devices for couples
Cons:
- No bank sync at all (manual entry only)
- Free plan limited to 10 envelopes
- Dated interface compared to newer apps
Best for: People who like the envelope budgeting method and prefer manual transaction entry. If you want bank sync, this is not the app.
5. Credit Karma (Intuit's Official Replacement)
Pros:
- Completely free
- Free credit score monitoring
- Basic spending tracking (added post-Mint)
Cons:
- Not a real budgeting app
- No budget categories or spending limits
- Pushes financial product ads aggressively
- Killed Mint to promote this instead
Best for: People who primarily used Mint for credit score tracking. As a budgeting tool, it falls far short. Intuit added some spending features after the Mint migration backlash, but it's fundamentally a credit monitoring and financial product recommendation platform.
Feature Comparison: Mint vs Alternatives
| Feature | Mint | Waypoint Budget | YNAB | Monarch | Goodbudget |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | Free (dead) | Free | $7.99 | $14.99/mo | $14.99/mo | Free | $10 |
| Bank Sync | Plus only | ||||
| Budget Tracking | |||||
| Smart Insights | 5/day free | Limited | |||

Cost Comparison: What You'll Actually Pay Per Year
One of the biggest shocks for Mint users is discovering that most alternatives cost money. Here's what a full year looks like:
What a Full Year Actually Costs
Monarch's $99.99/year price requires annual billing; paying monthly runs $179.88/year for the same Core plan, and its Plus tier is $199/year (annual only). Waypoint Budget and Goodbudget both have functional free tiers with no trial countdown.
Decision Guide
Here's my honest recommendation based on what you valued most about Mint:
- If you loved that Mint was free: Start with Waypoint Budget's free tier. Unlimited budget categories, Smart Money Coach, receipt scanning, CSV import, no expiration. Add bank sync later for $7.99/mo if you want it.
- If you want the closest thing to Mint: Monarch Money ($14.99/mo Core) has the most similar feature set: bank sync, spending tracking, investment overview, net worth. It's what Mint would be if it had a subscription.
- If you want to actually change your financial habits: YNAB ($14.99/mo) goes beyond tracking. It teaches you to give every dollar a job. Steep learning curve, but it works for people who commit.
- If you want bank sync on a budget: Waypoint Budget Plus ($7.99/mo) is the cheapest option with full bank sync via Plaid. Works with Chase, BofA, Wells Fargo, Citi, Capital One, PNC, Ally, SoFi, and 10,000+ institutions.
- If you just want credit score tracking: Credit Karma (free) is fine for that. Just don't expect it to replace Mint's budgeting features. It won't.
US Bank Support
One of the biggest concerns when switching from Mint: will my bank actually work? Most alternatives use Plaid for bank connections. Here's the support breakdown:
Full Support
- Chase
- Bank of America
- Wells Fargo
- Capital One
- Citi
- US Bank
- PNC
- Ally Bank
- SoFi
- Charles Schwab
Also Supported
- TD Bank (US)
- Discover
- American Express
- Navy Federal Credit Union
- USAA
- Truist
- Marcus by Goldman Sachs
- Fidelity
- Vanguard
- 10,000+ more institutions
Syncs automatically as your bank reports new transactions. Support quality varies for the "also supported" list, but most work well.
The US has better Plaid support than almost any other country. Most major banks and credit unions work reliably. Credit cards from Visa, Mastercard, and Discover sync just as well as checking accounts. AMEX can occasionally be temperamental but generally works fine.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Bottom Line
Mint is gone, and it's not coming back. The good news: the alternatives available now are, in a lot of ways, better than Mint ever was. Smarter categorization, real budgeting tools instead of just tracking, better privacy practices, the bar has been raised since 2024.
Whatever you choose, the most important thing is that you actually use it. Mint worked because it was simple and you opened it regularly. Find something that fits that same bar, and you'll be fine.

In-depth analysis of my finance. Visual and easy to use. The best app.
Georgette
I have been looking for a way to budget as I look move towards retirement. I had tried YNAB, MINT, and a few others, but found them too complicated. When I came upon Waypoint Budget, the first thing I liked was the clean look of the website. It is easy to navigate between the different tools. I now actually enjoy keeping track of my finances.
Helene
The bookmark version has proven to be so helpful in managing my money in a simple format that is easy to review and edit - along with subscribing to access one financial institution ($8/month CAD) to track my accounts - while the goals dashboard keeps me on track to paying down debt. Now they have finally created an app... (as of July 2026)... time will tell how that compares.
Kristin Gyuran
New to this app and love it. I really appreciate how you can interact with the creators to ask questions and recommend improvements. I find it easy to use and it syncs with my bank easily. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to be more mindful with their money.
Stevie Baker
Waypoint is amazing. It's intuitive and easy to use. It allows you to set goals, track budget lines, group things together into categories and shows pie charts of the percentages of your budget. You can set goals and feel completely in control and informed. It's an excellent budgeting app the the customer service is second to none.
Sabine
If you’re looking for a Canadian-made budgeting solution, look no further. Waypoint is easy to use, even for a budgeting novice — the layout and functionality just make sense, and there’s an app as well. Best of all, if you ever have questions, you get a real human to help you out quickly. Thank you!
J.P. Métivier
Outstanding product built by an attentive and responsive team. By far the best budgeting tool I've tried. I wish they had a referral program because I'm already referring it to my close circle.
Ahmed H.
Just what I was looking for. Pulls transactions directly from my canadian bank accounts (works great for scotiabank and cibc), simple and clean design, ability to budget, track and compile reports on spending per category/month/year etc. Best such product out there for Canadians.
James W
One of the best budgeting apps I've used. Not unnecessarily invasive, functional, adaptable. Developing and updating faster than the issues can annoy you. Canadian made is also a huge bonus. Keep up the stellar work team!

A great replacement for MINT and more intuitive than MINT was!

The developer responded quickly when I had issues with importing transactions and linking banks. They implemented fixes right away and followed up with me. This is an active development team that truly cares about their product. 5 stars for trust.
Jodi Harbarenko
What an incredible find Waypoint Budget is! As a former MINT and YNAB user, I was searching for an affordable Canadian budgeting app with straightforward features—and Waypoint delivers exactly that. The dashboard is clean and easy to navigate, and connecting my bank accounts was seamless. What really sets Waypoint apart is the founder's incredible responsiveness and genuine care for user feedback. I've never experienced this level of support with any other budgeting tool. Highly recommend!
Kerem
Great budgeting app with very active development team! I've been using it for over 5 months and very happy with the user experience. The paid feature to use Plaid to sync bank transactions is worth considering on its own. Filters credit card payment and receive transactions well enough by itself and provides a lot of customization.
Jared Friesen
Great with Canadian bank. The user interface is great. Budget tool is perfect.
Tony S Pietromonaco
Great product and excellent customer service
Valerie
I'm a senior with a bit of bookkeeping experience from long ago. That's relevant because I am thrilled to bits that I have found Waypoint to be so easy to use. Of course, there is a learning curve, but between Waypoint themselves and ChatGPT, I've been able to navigate the whole thing. I highly recommend Waypoint -- it's designed for Canadians, which is huge for me, and designed with privacy integrity as well.
Seif Allaoua
Impressive, it really surpassed my expectations, and I am usually a difficult customer when it comes to technology solutions. As a computer engineer myself, and a two weeks customer, I can already tell that the team at WayPoint did a fantastic work on this, despite Canadian banks having legacy and conservative methods of interacting with third parties. Two weeks in, I have already started seeing improvement in the way I manage my finances and I am able to forecast what's coming in savings, spending and reaching long term financial goals. A true five star solution. Thank you

Barbara Whittaker
Wonderful experience excellent customer support and product!!
Mike
This app makes budgeting and tracking your money simple. It is intuitive and well developed. But what really makes this app head and shoulders above other apps is the developers desire to make it better. Not only did they reply back to questions I had about certain functions (I find it rare that app developers even respond to emails or messages), they made changes to the app to address these issues. Amazing!!
Byra Dineshkumar
As someone who is still a beginner when it comes to personal finance and budgeting, I've found Waypoint to be incredibly helpful in terms of making the process of tracking expenses and learning how to budget less daunting. I haven't upgraded to being able to sync banking transactions just yet, but even the process of manually entering my expenses, and having a clear visual of where I'm at and my goals has been empowering. I especially love the dashboard, the user interface is easy to navigate. Excited to continue to explore the different features Waypoint has to offer, and to see the platform grow as whole :)
Mathieu Thériault
Great canadian financial planning application. Focuses on what's important, lots of potential and delivers on most of it, the rest will come as they are updating the application steadily on what matters most. Support is superb, quick, detailed, with troubleshooting steps and possible solutions as soon as the first message.
Johnny D.
It's a really great tool to get you started on your budgeting journey. Easy to understand and navigate, easy to customize. On top of that they have rapid customer service - when I had questions they would respond within 24h-48h. Impressive stuff! Keep doing what you're doing.
Chad
This is the best Canadian budgeting platform I've used so far. I've tried many other budgeting platforms, but always ended up going back to my spreadsheets-until now. the layout is clean and intuitive, and its incredibly simple and efficient to use. waypoint budget finally gives me everything i liked about with my spreadsheets, without the hassle.
Jacques Persoons
Finally find an app that suits all our needs. Quite Simple to use and very intuitive. I tried few other apps that were WAY TO COMPLICATED! It is also well adapted for Canadians. Customer service is also top of the line…

It's a really great tool to get you started on your budgeting journey. Easy to understand and navigate, easy to customize. On top of that they have rapid customer service - when I had questions they would respond within 24h-48h. Impressive stuff! Keep doing what you're doing.

Great product and excellent customer service

Just what I was looking for. Pulls transactions directly from my canadian bank accounts (works great for scotiabank and cibc), simple and clean design, ability to budget, track and compile reports on spending per category/month/year etc. Best such product out there for Canadians.

Finally find an app that suits all our needs. Quite Simple to use and very intuitive. I tried few other apps that were WAY TO COMPLICATED! It is also well adapted for Canadians. Customer service is also top of the line…

Impressive, it really surpassed my expectations, and I am usually a difficult customer when it comes to technology solutions. As a computer engineer myself, and a two weeks customer, I can already tell that the team at WayPoint did a fantastic work on this, despite Canadian banks having legacy and conservative methods of interacting with third parties. Two weeks in, I have already started seeing improvement in the way I manage my finances and I am able to forecast what's coming in savings, spending and reaching long term financial goals. A true five star solution. Thank you

Great budgeting tool for less money than others. The dashboard is particularly insightful

I have been looking for a way to budget as I look move towards retirement. I had tried YNAB, MINT, and a few others, but found them too complicated. When I came upon Waypoint Budget, the first thing I liked was the clean look of the website. It is easy to navigate between the different tools. I now actually enjoy keeping track of my finances.

The developer responded quickly when I had issues with importing transactions and linking banks. They implemented fixes right away and followed up with me. This is an active development team that truly cares about their product. 5 stars for trust.

New to this app and love it. I really appreciate how you can interact with the creators to ask questions and recommend improvements. I find it easy to use and it syncs with my bank easily. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to be more mindful with their money.

As someone who is still a beginner when it comes to personal finance and budgeting, I've found Waypoint to be incredibly helpful in terms of making the process of tracking expenses and learning how to budget less daunting. I haven't upgraded to being able to sync banking transactions just yet, but even the process of manually entering my expenses, and having a clear visual of where I'm at and my goals has been empowering. I especially love the dashboard, the user interface is easy to navigate. Excited to continue to explore the different features Waypoint has to offer, and to see the platform grow as whole :)

Great budgeting app with very active development team! I've been using it for over 5 months and very happy with the user experience. The paid feature to use Plaid to sync bank transactions is worth considering on its own. Filters credit card payment and receive transactions well enough by itself and provides a lot of customization.

If you’re looking for a Canadian-made budgeting solution, look no further. Waypoint is easy to use, even for a budgeting novice — the layout and functionality just make sense, and there’s an app as well. Best of all, if you ever have questions, you get a real human to help you out quickly. Thank you!
