Money awareness for the next generation.

North shows you exactly what's safe to spend right now — then splits every paycheck into Spend, Save, Invest, and Goals automatically. Link your bank and it runs itself, or do it all by hand. Your call.

Most people spend everything they earn — not because they're irresponsible, but because no one gave them a system.

Between paychecks, one number actually matters: what's safe to spend right now. Without it, every dollar disappears — and so does the lesson.

of parents want to teach long-term money habits but lack the right tools
70%
of families have no formal money management system in place
51%
of people don't know how much they can safely spend right now

Safe to Spend of $352.50 with a green-yellow-red spending stoplight and $25/day runway until payday

Safe to Spend is the one number North is built around: how much you can spend today without touching your savings, your goals, or the bills you haven't paid yet. It updates as you spend — and it's the same number on your home screen, your widget, and your morning notification. Always to the dollar.

  • Daily runway

    See your “$X/day” until your next payday, so a good week doesn't turn into a broke weekend.

  • Spending Stoplight

    A green, yellow, or red light that tells you at a glance whether you're on pace. No spreadsheets, no math.

  • Awareness streak

    A running count of the days you've checked in on your money. Small habit, big difference.

Every paycheck gets a plan.

Every paycheck splits automatically into four buckets by percentages you choose. Pick a preset at signup — Balanced is our North Pick — or build your own. Every split is exact to the cent.

Spend
Your safe-to-spend money for everyday purchases
Save
Build your emergency fund and short-term savings
Invest Optional
Grow your wealth with long-term investments
Goals
Save toward the things that matter most to you

Three steps. Two minutes. Life-long habits.

1

Log a paycheck

Enter what you earned and watch a live preview show exactly how your money splits across Spend, Save, Invest, and Goals. Your Safe to Spend updates instantly.

2

Move your money

Follow a simple checklist to move your money into the right places. Check off each bucket as you go — it's that satisfying. Or link a bank and skip this entirely.

Watch it add up

Every paycheck ends in a celebration — new records, goals advancing, badges earned, and your streak climbing. Progress you can actually feel.

Make your money even more hands-off.

Passive Mode

Tell North which deposit is your real paycheck — just once. After that, every future paycheck from that source splits itself into your buckets automatically. You just get a card that says “We split your $1,240.” Venmo, refunds, and random deposits always stay manual.

Premium + bank linking
Safe to Spend Rollover

Didn't spend it all? Keep it. Turn on rollover and your leftover Spend money carries into next period instead of vanishing — and you decide how it works: reset each paycheck, last two paychecks, or build a running balance forever.

Premium + bank linking

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
