See every bill coming up, and when

Subscriptions renew on different days. Rent, power, and internet follow their own schedules. Some bills change each month. List them once in CatatKoin. You see a calendar of what is due, a reminder before each date, and an expense that adds itself on the day.

The CatatKoin bill calendar with bills and installments on their due dates

Small charges are easy to forget

A streaming plan renews on the 23rd. The internet bill comes on the 18th. Car insurance is due once a year. Each one is small, and together they decide how your month goes.

Most of them are repeat charges. CatatKoin calls them recurring expenses. You enter the amount, the schedule, and a category one time. After that, the schedule does the work.

  4. 4

    Open the calendar

    Open the calendar view for October. Each bill sits on its date. Estimated bills carry an Estimated label, and installments carry an Installment label. The month shows a subtotal for each currency, split into fixed and estimated amounts.

    Subtotal for OctoberAmount
    FixedRp4.070.000
    EstimatedRp450.000

    To see only the installments, filter the calendar for installments. To see only the bills that can change, filter for estimated amounts.

  5. 5

    Get a reminder in time

    Set the reminder lead time on each bill. The car insurance is large, so set 14 days. Open Reminders to see what needs attention. If you leave the lead time blank, CatatKoin uses 7 days.

  6. 6

    Log a charge you did not plan

    A one-time charge is not a recurring bill. When one shows up, add it as an ordinary expense. From Telegram, send a message such as "parking 25k".
