How does this compare to the paid apps?
YNAB costs around $109/year. Monarch Money is about $99/year. EveryDollar has a free tier with a paid upgrade. Paper & Prosperity is free — permanently — and Empire Life Dashboard is a single $37 payment you make once.
If you are paying off debt, the last thing you need is another monthly bill for a budgeting app.
Common questions
Is Paper & Prosperity really free?
Yes. Completely free — no subscription, no ads, no hidden fees. It's free on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac and the web.
Is Empire Life Dashboard a subscription?
No. It's a one-time purchase. $36.99 on Windows, $37 on Mac. You pay once and own it. No monthly or yearly fees.
Is there a free trial for Empire Life Dashboard?
Yes — 7 days free on both Mac and Windows. No payment required until you decide to keep it.
What's your refund policy?
Refunds are handled by the store you bought from: Apple for App Store purchases, and Microsoft for Microsoft Store purchases, under their own refund policies. If something isn't working, contact us on the support page and we'll help however we can.
Do the apps connect to my bank?
No — and that's on purpose. You enter your own numbers. Your budget is stored on your device. Only the optional Money Coach sends a summary of your numbers to an AI service when you ask it a question.
Will prices go up?
Paper & Prosperity is free to use today. If we ever add optional paid features, we'll announce them clearly. Empire Life Dashboard's price may change in the future. Anyone who has already bought it keeps their copy at no extra cost.
