Robert Afanu is the founder of Ledgewise. He built it to show people their debt-free date and give them a plan to reach it, with no spreadsheets and no shame. LinkedIn
Why Ledgewise exists
Ledgewise was built so nobody has to guess the date the last debt is paid off. With several debts, the hard part is knowing which one to pay next and when the last one reaches zero.
Ledgewise keeps that plan and your monthly budget in one place, so the money for an extra payment is already in the plan.
What Ledgewise is, and is not
- Ledgewise is a zero-based envelope budget with a debt payoff plan: snowball or avalanche, and a debt-free date.
- Ledgewise is not a lender. It does not offer consolidation loans or credit repair, and it does not give financial advice.
- It never moves your money, and bank access is read-only.
- The free debt payoff calculator runs in your browser. The numbers you type are not sent anywhere.
