About Folko

Folko is a free finance app that combines personal budgeting with group expense splitting in one app. Track your income, manage expenses across multiple cashbooks, visualize where your money goes with Spending Overview charts, and split shared costs with anyone. Unlike Splitwise (splitting only) or YNAB (budgeting only), Folko does both.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Folko?
Folko is a free finance app that combines personal budgeting with group expense splitting in one app. Unlike apps that only do one or the other, Folko lets you track your income, manage expenses across multiple cashbooks, visualize your spending with charts, and split shared costs with anyone — all in one place.
Is Folko free?
Yes, Folko is genuinely free forever with unlimited transactions, no ads, and no tricks. You get 3 cashbooks, 4 members per cashbook, 2 currencies per cashbook, 3 receipt scans/month, Quick-Add, Smart Settle, Spending Overview, Cash Flow forecast, and Budgets for free. Optional Supporter ($1/mo) and Patron ($5/mo) tiers unlock more cashbooks, members, unlimited currencies, Travel Mode, reports, unlimited scanning, and premium themes — but the core experience never costs a penny.
How does Folko compare to Splitwise?
Splitwise focuses exclusively on group expense splitting. Folko does everything Splitwise does — group splitting, Smart Settle, payment rails — plus full personal budgeting: income tracking, budget goals, Spending Overview charts, and multi-currency support with 150+ currencies. Folko also offers unlimited free transactions, while Splitwise limits free users.
Can Folko track expenses in multiple currencies?
Yes. Folko supports 150+ currencies with live exchange rates updated daily. You can track expenses in any currency and Folko automatically converts amounts so you always know what you spent, no matter where you are.
How does Smart Settle work?
Smart Settle is Folko's algorithm that analyzes all balances in a cashbook and calculates the minimum number of payments needed to settle all debts. Instead of everyone paying everyone, Smart Settle reduces the transactions to the fewest possible. One tap connects you to your preferred payment method — PayPal, Venmo, PIX, UPI, Zelle, or any of 20 supported payment rails.
What payment methods does Folko support?
Folko supports 20 payment rails for settling balances: PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, PIX, UPI, Zelle, Mercado Pago, SEPA, Interac, and Bizum. Folko does not process payments directly — it deep-links to your preferred payment app for a one-tap settlement experience.
Is Folko available in my language?
Folko is available in 15 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Turkish, German, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Korean, Vietnamese, and Italian. Arabic includes full RTL (right-to-left) layout support.
How does Folko protect my data?
Folko encrypts your data in transit (TLS) and at rest on secure cloud infrastructure. Your account is isolated at the database level, so no other user can access your cashbooks. We never sell your data, never share it with advertisers or data brokers, and only disclose it when legally required. You can export everything as PDF, CSV, or Excel at any time, and delete your account in one tap.
Can I export my data from Folko?
Yes. Supporter and Patron tier users can export their data as PDF, CSV, or Excel (XLSX) reports for any cashbook and any time period. Your data is always yours — Folko is committed to full data portability.
What is the difference between Folko free and paid tiers?
Free Folko includes 3 cashbooks, 4 members per cashbook, 2 currencies per cashbook, unlimited transactions, 3 recurring transactions, 3 receipt scans/month, 1 savings goal, Quick-Add, Smart Settle, Spending Overview, Cash Flow forecast, Budgets, and 20 payment rails. Supporter ($1/mo or $10/yr or $100 lifetime) adds 10 cashbooks, 30 members, unlimited currencies, unlimited recurring transactions, unlimited receipt scanning, 5 savings goals, PDF/CSV/Excel reports, all 8 themes, Travel Mode (Trips), and a Supporter badge. Patron ($5/mo or $48/yr or $250 lifetime) adds 50 cashbooks, 100 members, unlimited savings goals, Bitcoin portfolio with weighted-average cost basis, early access, priority support, and a Patron badge.
