Household & Partners

Share your financial journey with partners and family members in a unified household.

Managing Finances Together

BeDebtFree supports household accounts, allowing you and your partner to track debts and finances together. Share a unified view while maintaining appropriate access for each household member.

  • Each person has their own login credentials

  • The household owner manages membership and billing
