CarPence vs Deskline Paycheck Budget Calculators
Facts from each product's IndieNeed listing, side by side.
CarPence is a simple, free web app for UK drivers who want to know what their car is really costing them. Record fuel, servicing, repairs, tyres, insurance, MOT, tax, parking and other expenses, while keeping useful reminders in one place. It also tracks mileage, monthly average spending and cost per mile. CarPence has deliberately been kept simple and uncluttered.
Enter your weekly, biweekly, twice-a-month or monthly take-home pay and your bills. It splits each paycheck 50/30/20, 60/20/20, 70/20/10 or your own way, assigns every bill to the paycheck that covers it, and shows what's left from each check. No signup, runs in your browser, prints to PDF. Also links to our other free paycheck tools (biweekly, 50/30/20, bills, sinking funds, debt payoff).
