Karen and Jeff
We’ve been with MyBudget for 13 years and have nothing but praise for the staff and the service. Their reliability means that we know all our bills are paid on time. When I’m not having a good day brain-wise but need something done, the staff are patient and brilliant at helping me get through the process to achieve the desired resolution. Really can’t speak highly enough of them.

I recently joined MyBudget and so far I’ve had one of the best experiences with MyBudget, everyone I’ve spoken to so far has made me feel so comfortable and tended to every need and question I’ve had! Going into such a new thing I was quite nervous and not sure how it would work out and had a lot of anxiety around the situation but overall it’s been such an amazing and positive experience and I would highly recommend this to all my family and friends!

We were in some serious debt and getting nowhere fast. We tried doing our own budgets but failed every time, so after doing a lot of research we decided to pick up the phone and give MyBudget a call. They took our goals both short-term and long-term into account, and helped us set up a realistic savings goal and a plan to manage debt. We sat down on a video call and went over everything in fine detail and a budget was created that was fair and manageable.

MyBudget is one of Australia’s most trusted budgeting and money-management services. For over 25 years, we’ve helped more than 130,000 Australians create personalised budgets, get out of debt, build savings, and reach their financial goals. We combine expert money coaching with powerful custom technology to organise your expenses, pay bills on time and take the stress out of managing money. MyBudget can help you build a plan that supports your long-term financial wellbeing.
Every appointment to set up your personalised budget is completely free. If you decide to join, your fees will depend on the complexity of your financial situation and the level of support you need. Our mission is to improve financial wellbeing, so our fees are designed to be an affordable investment towards helping you achieve your financial goals.
Most Australians qualify for MyBudget because our service supports a wide range of financial situations, from managing everyday expenses to serious credit card debt, overdue bills or debt consolidation needs. At your free appointment, a money coach will review your income, debts, financial commitments and goals to confirm if MyBudget is the right fit. If you want budgeting help, debt relief options, or a clearer personal budget, we’re here to support you.
We offer flexible appointment options to suit your lifestyle. Most MyBudget appointments are held virtually or over the phone so you can get budgeting help from anywhere in Australia. For South Australian clients, in-person appointments at our office are also available. No matter the format, you’ll receive personalised financial coaching, budget planning support and a clear pathway to reaching your financial goals.
Your MyBudget journey begins with an initial conversation with one of our Money Coaches. They will chat to you about your financial position and gain an understanding of the financial goals you want to achieve. Once we have this snapshot, we will connect you with your very own Personal Budgeting Specialist. We can arrange a time convenient to you (and your partner where relevant). At that session we create a customised 12-month Personal Budget Plan that is yours to keep for FREE! This budget plan provides you with a detailed understanding of how, together with the support of MyBudget, you can live a life free from money worries and achieve your financial goals.
Absolutely. You have complete control and visibility of your finances. When you make a change to your budget, you’ll see your future forecast and payments update in real-time. New or unexpected expenses are easily added to your budget via our desktop or mobile apps or over the phone. Ideally, unexpected expenses will be covered by surplus savings. (We’ll help you develop a savings safety net.) If savings are not available, one of our money experts will help to adjust your budget so that the new expense fits. It’s your money—you’re always in control—and we’re always here to help. Moving money between your MyBudget and personal accounts is done via bank transfer.
