We're glad you're here!

Hello and welcome to YNAB! ?

You’re probably here because you heard about how charming and funny we are, right?

Oh… the money thing. Yeah, that too.

It’s always, “With YNAB, I changed my life, improved my relationship, eliminated most of my daily stress, and helped turn my dreams into reality,” but, to be fair, sometimes people say we’re funny. I swear.

Anyway, enough about us. Let’s get down to paying off your car and renovating your kitchen or whatever it is that your heart desires.

Before we go any further, let's get one thing straight though: YNAB isn't an app that magically sorts out your money situation when you download it. That's because the insight and decision-making skills you already possess (even if you don't realize it yet) are more powerful and life-changing than any feature we could develop.

The YNAB Method gives you a reliable, time-tested framework for channeling your knowledge and creativity into a lifestyle of spendfulness. The app gives you a set of tools for making a plan and putting it into action.

But make no mistake: YOU are YNAB's most life-changing feature.

In the next several emails, we’re going to spend some time getting to know more about our favorite feature (you!) and learning how YNAB can help you learn to love the way you spend.

Next Steps

In the next email, we’re going to talk about how budgeting is boring. We’re also going to give you a free online workbook, so make sure you open that email.

Until then, explore YNAB in the app or on your computer and make sure you’ve completed the onboarding wizard, which is, sadly, not a magical robe-wearing entity, but is still very helpful.

You might also want to check out our Ultimate Get Started Guide (but you don’t have to—we’re not here to boss you around.)

We’ll see you tomorrow!

Spendfully Yours,

The YNAB Team
