About Monarch
Budgeting and net-worth tracking is what Monarch does, built as a paid alternative for people who outgrew free budgeting apps and want to link accounts across banks, investments, and credit cards in one dashboard. Support promises to help fix problems first and offers a refund if they can't, rather than publishing a strict day-based guarantee.
Households who want a Mint-style budgeting app now that free options have thinned out are the core audience. The catch worth flagging: if you signed up through Apple's App Store rather than paying Monarch directly, Monarch can't process your refund at all — you have to go through Apple's own subscription refund system instead.
