Spending tracker

Credit card spending tracking without spreadsheets.

Cardinate helps you track balances, spending, utilization, promo APRs, and payments across every credit card — all in one clean dashboard.

01 — Why it gets hard

Tracking credit card spending gets messy fast.

Multiple cards, multiple apps

Every card lives in a different bank app, with a different login and a different dashboard. Switching between them just to know your total balance is exhausting.

Different due dates

Two cards in the same wallet rarely have the same statement date. One missed payment costs $35+ and a 30-point credit dip.

Promo APR deadlines

0% balance transfer offers are quietly the most expensive thing in your wallet if you miss the snap-back date.

Rising utilization

Utilization moves the moment you swipe — and your credit score moves with it. Without a tracker, you find out at month end.

Hard-to-see spending patterns

A $40 charge on five different cards is $200 you didn't budget for. One per-card view changes that.

02 — What it should show

What a credit card spending tracker should actually show

Balance by card

Current balance, statement balance, and how much credit is still available.

Transactions by card

Every charge, grouped by card and by category — not just one merged feed.

Utilization

Per-card and overall, updated as balances change.

Due dates & minimum payments

What's due, when, and the minimum required to stay current.

APR and promo APR deadlines

Your purchase APR, any promo APR, and the date it expires.

Total monthly spending

How much you put on credit this month, across every card.

Payment vs spend
Overspending
Your monthly payment is less than your monthly spending — your balance is growing.
Heads up: at this rate you'll add about $300 to your total balance every month.
