Frequently asked questions

Is mPiggy a free EasyBudget alternative?

Yes. mPiggy's core budgeting app is free forever. EasyBudget.pl is subscription-based after its 14-day trial—roughly 15 PLN/month for Basic and about 25 PLN/month for Premium with PSD2 bank sync. mPiggy charges only for optional add-ons.

EasyBudget is Polish—does mPiggy work in Polish too?

Yes. mPiggy ships a full Polish UI alongside English, with accounting-correct multi-currency. Both products serve Polish users; the difference is platform and pricing—native mobile and free core for mPiggy, web/PWA and subscription for EasyBudget.

Web app vs native app—does it matter?

It can. EasyBudget runs primarily in the browser as a PWA, so it depends on a connection and a cloud account. mPiggy is a native mobile app that works fully offline, with notifications and gestures and your ledger stored on the device.

Does EasyBudget connect to Polish banks?

Yes, on its Premium plan via PSD2 open banking. mPiggy keeps bank sync optional through Bank Connect; otherwise it uses fast manual entry that works offline.
