With the holidays just around the corner, it’s easy to let your spending get out of control. Download the Mint apps for your Nokia Lumia smartphone or tablet today to help make sure you stay on budget. Mint allows you to track, manage and budget your money all in one SECURE place to help better manage your personal finances.
The Mint apps for Windows and Windows Phone offer live, up-to-date information about your financial accounts, bill reminders and personalized money advice right from the Start screen. You can get a consolidated view of your money for convenient financial decisions in the app and real-time-updates via Live Tiles on both the Windows and Windows Phone platforms.
Mint uses 128-bit SSL encryption – this is the same type of security that banks use – and all of your data is protected and validated by VeriSign and TRUSTe. Plus, it is worth noting that Mint is a read-only service – you cannot move money in or out of any account using the app.
Mint has hundreds of predefined categories, and you can also rename or re-categorize any transaction to suit your preferences. You can even add your own categories, if you want.
Once your information is synced up with Mint, the service automatically updates and categorizes your financial information, and then it will suggest ways to help you save money. You get access to an easy-to-follow timeline to see upcoming bills, and charts that visually layout where the money is being spent. All of this is intended to help you plan ahead.
Making sure you have your finances in order, and then having a plan to help you stick to it might seem like a daunting task. Mint should help make it all a bit easier to swallow. And wouldn’t that be a refreshing change of pace?
The Mint app is free to download from both the Windows and Windows Phone Stores. And, Mint.com has several tutorial videos as well as a new post in their blog to help you get started.
