There are many ways to take your family finance management plan online. For those who prefer to go the manual route, Microsoft has a great Excel guide to help you get started. You can also use a number of apps to track and manage your family's finances. Many offer handy reporting services and may even make suggestions to improve your finances. Here are some of our favorite apps: • If you're looking for something free and easy, Intuit offers an app called Mint that is known for its ability to sync with a wide variety of financial institutions for real-time expense reporting.  • Another up-and-coming app for couples looking to join their finances is Zeta. If you and your partner are looking to start combining your finances, this may be the app for you!  • If you want to get rid of paper clutter, while also managing your expenses, we recommend Shoeboxed. By scanning your receipts and bills through your phone camera, you can digitize them and store them in the cloud. The app also transcribes your documents so you can easily search for them and create expense reports. Not only will you be able to keep your home tidier, you'll also have a better picture of your family's finances!
