Which fits your Money Type?

There are four Money Types: Strategist, Spender, Saver and Scrambler. Each card matches one type to what the sources say about these two apps.

  • Strategist

    Simplifi lists investment tracking. That fits a Strategist, who wants to watch the whole plan grow.

    First fix: Save the Raise.

  • Spender

    Simplifi lists goals. A goal gives a Spender a reason to pause before buying, which is the Sleep on It fix.

    First fix: Sleep on It.

  • Saver

    Neither app's sources confirm a feature we match to this type yet, so the quiz is the better place to start.

    First fix: Put It to Work.

  • Scrambler

    Simplifi lists bank syncing. Seeing every account in one place helps a Scrambler pay bills first.

    First fix: Bills First.
