Honeydue

Honeydue launched in 2018 with a narrow focus, give couples a shared view of money without forcing them to combine accounts. Each partner connects their own bank, credit card, and loan accounts through Plaid, then chooses what the other person can see, some couples share everything, others keep certain accounts private and only show the joint expenses. Both partners get bill reminders for due dates pulled from the linked accounts, and either person can leave a comment or an emoji reaction on a specific transaction, which turns out to be a genuinely useful way to ask what something was for without a separate text.

The app is free, with no subscription tier as of mid-2026, which is unusual for a finance app this specifically built for one use case. It suits couples who keep separate accounts and want visibility without a joint checking account, more than couples who already share everything and just want one combined budget like Monarch’s. It’s lighter on planning tools than the bigger all-in-one platforms, there’s no zero-based budgeting or detailed goal tracking, the app’s whole value is the shared transparency layer.
