About Cents Compass

Cents Compass is written by Alex. Alex writes plain-English reviews of personal finance apps and tools. Content is educational and not financial advice.

How we research

We read official product pages, pricing pages, help docs and terms, plus independent and public sources (government agencies, professional bodies and published reviews). We cite those sources at the end of each article. We do not claim hands-on testing unless an article explicitly says so, and we update articles when products change.

How we make money

Some links are affiliate links. See our affiliate disclosure. Brands cannot pay for a better verdict.
