The five areas we measure
1. Budgeting
Do you have money left over each month, or does the end of the month feel like a squeeze? We look at how you manage your monthly income versus outgoings, whether you track your spending, and if you’re able to set money aside.
Why it matters: Budgeting is the foundation - it powers savings, avoids debt, and gives you day-to-day breathing room.
2. Savings
Are you saving regularly, and is your money working hard for you? This dimension looks at whether you’ve built up any short- or long-term savings, how you’re using interest-earning accounts, and if you’re planning ahead for emergencies.
Why it matters: Savings are your safety net - they reduce stress, increase flexibility, and help you handle life’s surprises.
3. Managing Debt
Do you owe money — and if so, how manageable is it? A little bit of debt is okay, particularly if you have a plan on how to pay it off. Trouble starts when you're accumulating debt and not doing enough to reduce it.
Why it matters: Managing debt well protects your future - and stops small problems turning into big ones.
4. Credit Cards
Are your cards working for you — or are you leaving benefits on the table? We believe a lot of value can be extracted from credit cards when used smartly. That takes choosing the right cards that deliver for you.
Why it matters: Credit cards can be a tool - or a trap. Used wisely, they offer flexibility and perks. Used poorly, they get expensive fast.
5. Money Transfers
Do you regularly send money abroad? If so, how much are you losing in fees or bad exchange rates? We ask about your habits and the services you use - some are clearly better than others!
Why it matters: Even small differences in rates can add up. If you transfer money often, optimising this could save you hundreds each year.
