Data last updated 2026-08-13. Checked by the LemSubs research team.
Spendee has a devoted European user base thanks to genuinely good multi-currency handling, shared wallets for households and travel, and a clean, colourful UI. Free users can enter data manually; paid tiers unlock bank sync and multiple wallets.
Subscription tracking exists as a category in the transactions view. It works, but it is a category view, not a first-class subscription surface with vendor logos, renewal calendars, or overlap detection. Strengths: friendly pricing compared to US-focused apps, real multi-currency support, and the shared-wallet model for couples and roommates.
Weaknesses: subscription intelligence is minimal, and bank sync coverage varies significantly by country. Good pick for European multi-currency households who want budgeting first and subscriptions as a side benefit.
