In short
What you own, less what you owe
Your investments and bank accounts come into your net worth on their own. Add super, property and debts once, update them when they change, and the history builds up as you go. Net worth is on every plan, the Free plan included.
Bank accounts
- Open Holdings and choose the Cash tab.
- Select Add a bank account: give it a name, such as the bank and account, and today's balance.
- Pick the date you have had this balance since, so your charts count it from then.
- Whenever you check your bank, select Update balance. The change is recorded and counts in your Dashboard total.
Super
- Open Holdings and choose the Super tab.
- Select Add super, choose your fund or type its name, and enter the balance from your latest statement or your fund's app.
- Choose how often you want to be reminded to update it. It is shown as due here; nothing is emailed.
If you track the investments inside your super, or run an SMSF, set them up as a portfolio instead. See portfolios and SMSFs.
Property, vehicles and debts
- Open Net worth and go to Add something you own or owe.
- Choose what it is, give it a name and enter today's value or balance.
- Update it whenever it changes. The old value is kept, so you can see the history.
What you can add:
- You own: property, vehicle, super, something else.
- You owe: mortgage, HECS-HELP, credit card, car loan, personal loan, something else.
Fixing common problems
A bank account was added by mistake
Delete it from Cash. It and its balances come out of every past total.
Super is counted twice
Use either a fund balance or a super portfolio for the same fund, not both.
