Set your own budget period

Your budget does not have to run from the 1st to the end of the month any more. You can pick when it starts and how long each cycle runs.

Weekly, every two weeks, twice a month and monthly are all there, on every plan including Free, and you set the start date yourself. If you get paid on the 15th, your budget can start on the 15th.

On Pro and Premium you can also set a cycle of any length in days, and use a fund then spend cycle, where you put money into the budget during one part of the period and spend it down over the rest. What you funded carries through to the spending phase, so nothing gets stranded when the phase changes.

Pick a period when you create a budget, or change it later in the budget's settings. Budgets you already have stay monthly until you change them.
