Mint - Refreshing Money Management
Mint is an incredibly easy way to manage your money online. Instead of having separate sites and logins for each of your credit cards and bank accounts, Mint.com provides one simple site for you to view and manage your finances.
With a great user interface full of charts and graphs to chart how much, where and what you spent your money on, Mint is also surprisingly very secure. Users sign up to Mint anonymously and then add their login information for their online bank, credit cards and other financial accounts they would like to consolidate with Mint.
In addition, Mint goes beyond visibility and analysis; providing personalized money-saving and money-making suggestions. Mint provides users an average of $1,000 in savings opportunities during their first session. Plus, Mint is proactive— alerting you when you are over budget, have a low balance, need to pay a bill, and more.
While Mint is an amazing tool for your bank account and credit card accounts, it does not currently let you manage your student loans.
Mint connects nightly to the credit card providers, banks, and/or credit unions you choose to keep your transactions and account balances automatically up-to-date. Mint even auto-balances your checkbook and auto-categorizes your transactions. Set it up once and you’re done.
How many credit cards do you have? Do you pay those cards online? How would you like to track your spending, interest rates and other financial stats with a nifty and convenience web app called Mint? Now, how much would you pay for this? But wait! Isn’t it also free! Holy cow it is!
In addition to keeping track of your student loan payments, Mint lets you view all of your banking and credit card transactions side-by-side, keep track of the best bank account and credit card deals so that you aren’t paying more than you should, see your average and historical spending and even create budgets from yourself to better save money from month-to-month.
If you are interested in trying out Mint for yourself, just go to Mint.com and sign up for a free account.
