Subscription Cost Tracker

List each subscription with its price and billing cycle to see the true monthly and yearly total, upcoming renewals and what cancelling would save; a $6.99 weekly plan really costs $30.29 a month. The list is kept only in this browser's local storage, never on a server, so export a CSV or print it to keep a copy.

How to use the Subscription Cost Tracker

  1. 1Add each subscription with its price and how often it bills.
  2. 2Optionally add the next renewal date and a category.
  3. 3Tick Cancel? on the ones you are unsure about to see what dropping them would save.
  4. 4Print the list or export it as CSV. It is also kept in this browser for next time.

How it works

Subscriptions bill on different cycles, which hides their real cost. The tracker converts each one to a monthly and a yearly figure — a weekly charge is multiplied by 52 and divided by 12, a quarterly one divided by three, a yearly one divided by twelve — and adds them up, so a $6.99 weekly plan appears as the $30.29 a month it really costs.

Totals by category show where the money goes, and ticking the subscriptions you might cancel shows the monthly and yearly saving. Renewal dates roll forward by each subscription's billing cycle, so the list of upcoming renewals stays current, and dates at the end of a month renew on the last day of shorter months.

Your list is saved in this browser's local storage and never sent to a server. Clearing your browser data removes it, so export a CSV if you want a copy.

Worked example

Three subscriptions: $15.49 monthly, $6.99 weekly and $99 yearly

  1. $15.49 monthly stays $15.49 a month.
  2. $6.99 × 52 ÷ 12 = $30.29 a month.
  3. $99 ÷ 12 = $8.25 a month.

Result: $54.03 a month, or $648.36 a year.

Tips and common mistakes

  • Go through two or three months of bank and card statements; yearly and quarterly charges are easy to forget.
  • Check app store subscriptions on your phone as well as card payments.
  • Note when free trials end, before they turn into paid subscriptions.
  • Tick the ones you might cancel to see the saving before you decide.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find all my subscriptions?
Search your email for “receipt”, “renewal” and “subscription”, check the subscription pages in the Apple App Store and Google Play, and scan the last three months of bank and card statements for repeat charges.
Is my list saved?
Yes, in this browser only, using local storage. Nothing is uploaded, and the list does not sync to your other devices.
How are weekly subscriptions converted to monthly?
A year has 52 weeks and 12 months, so a weekly price is multiplied by 52 and divided by 12 — about 4.33 weeks per month, not 4.
Can I print my list?
Yes. Press Print list for a clean table of every subscription with its monthly and yearly cost, without the editing controls.
Is paying yearly cheaper than paying monthly?
Often, yes — many services discount a yearly plan. Compare the yearly price with twelve times the monthly price, and only commit if you are sure you will use it all year.
Can I export my list?
Yes. Export it as a CSV file to keep a copy or open it in a spreadsheet.
Is my list sent anywhere?
No. It is stored in this browser's local storage on your device and never sent to a server.
