With rising fuel prices, living\u00a0expenses and the\u00a0convenience of online shopping today, it is very easy to get carried away and spend too much money. Luckily, there are a number of apps out there that can aid in keeping your spending under control and help you save money.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1) StokFella<\/a><\/b> (iOS & Android)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Local is always lekker and it doesn\u2019t get more local than StokFella. StokFella is an online stokvel platform that not only makes it easier for stokvel clubs to manage their monthly payments and claims online, but grow their savings through sound investment channels. The platform offers a \u201cBasic\u201d or \u201cAdvanced\u201d account to users. The Basic account is completely free but is limited in terms of the number of people you can have in your stokvel, as opposed to the Advanced account that allows for up to 50 members, and gives one access to interest-bearing investments like QuickAccess (4.25%) or 32 Day (5.25%). The costs one incurs while using the Advanced account is limited to transaction charges only.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2) <\/b>22Seven<\/b><\/a> (iOS & Android)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This nifty app – backed by Old Mutual – identifies each transaction and automatically puts it into a category like \u201cGroceries\u201d, \u201cRent\u201d or \u201cPets\u201d. You are able to use existing categories or create your own. 22Seven then adds up how much money you spend on each category every month so you know exactly how much you are spending and on what. This will provide insight into how to save money that is being spent unnecessarily. An added benefit of 22Seven is that all of your income and expense categories are exportable which can help in reducing the pressure when it comes to submitting your tax returns.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
