Why tracking your spending changes everything
We almost always underestimate our small expenses: a coffee, a forgotten subscription, delivery fees. One by one, they’re nothing; added up over a month, they often come to several hundred euros. Tracking your spending simply makes the invisible visible.
The goal isn’t to deprive yourself, it’s to choose: keep what truly matters, cut what you no longer use, and know at any moment how much you can still spend this month.
Recurring expenses that track themselves
Rent, electricity, insurance, phone, subscriptions: you enter them once with their amount and frequency. Ecomely creates each payment, marks it as paid on its due date and reminds you beforehand. No more re-entering them every month.
If an amount changes (a subscription price hike, an energy bill adjustment), you update the bill once and all future payments follow.
Everyday spending, logged in one sentence
For one-off expenses, one sentence is enough: “€38 on groceries,” “€15 for the movies yesterday.” Ecomely understands the amount, the category and the date. With Zély, you can even say it out loud as you leave the store. Snap a photo of a receipt or invoice and it’s stored in your Vault, linked to the expense.
Order confirmations and invoices received in your Ecomely Mail can also become an expense in a single tap.
One sentence
Amount, category and date understood automatically.
One email
The invoice you receive becomes an expense, receipt included.
Spot spending that’s getting out of hand
The category chart shows where your money goes this month, and its evolution over several months reveals trends: groceries creeping up, outings soaring in summer, energy costs rising in winter. An anonymous comparison with households of the same size tells you if a category is unusually high.
Zély also flags a subscription that goes up or an unusual expense, so you can react before the month is over.
Solo, as a couple or for your business
Track your personal spending, your household’s in a Shared Space (including who paid for what), or your freelance business’s in a separate space. Each space has its own categories and its own budget. It’s all free, with no bank connection required, and hosted in France.

Create my free accountHow to track your spending effectively: 5 tips
The best tracking system is the one you stick with for more than a month. These tips make the habit easy.
Start with fixed expenses
They’re the biggest and the easiest to track: once entered, they track themselves.
Log it within a minute
The longer you wait, the more you forget. One sentence on your phone as you leave the store is all it takes.
Keep categories few
Eight to ten categories are plenty. Too much detail is discouraging and adds nothing.
Watch the trend, not the pennies
What matters is seeing that a category is rising, not getting it right to the euro.
Review your subscriptions once a year
List them all, keep the ones you actually use and cancel the rest: it’s the easiest saving there is.
