This bank account app for budgeting is designed specifically for the millennial generation. Based in Hong Kong, the Neat app is described as "your financial buddy," making banking an easy, mobile and real-time experience.
The app for budgeting helps users to understand exactly where to spend their money. It categorizes expenses in a visually appealing way at odds with more traditional spreadsheets. In this way, it enhances financial literacy. The Neat app lets you make saving goals, will show you how much you spend and send you alerts when you are spending too much. Everything can conveniently be done through the app, saving users an in-person visit to their bank branch.
The startup is currently accepting beta tester requests.
