Nuumey.
Envelope budgeting for people living paycheck to paycheck, with Nuu, a little companion whose mood follows your budget. Free to use on the web and Google Play.
Where it started
Budgeting for everyone else.
Most budgeting apps are built for people whose money is already sorted. Nuumey is for people living paycheck to paycheck, who want to know what’s safe to spend before payday without being made to feel bad about it.
We built the first version over the May bank holiday in 2026. The public beta opened on 5 June and the Android app went live on Google Play on 27 June. Nuumey is now a registered trade mark in the UK.

The budgeting
Every pound gets a home.
On payday you enter what landed and split it into envelopes. Bills are set aside first, so what’s left is what you can actually spend. Money you don’t spend carries forward to next month.
Logging a spend takes seconds, with saved payees for the places you go every week. Before a bigger buy, What If shows where the money could come from. A buffer target helps you build a month’s safety net and break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle.
Couples can share a household budget and friends can save toward a shared goal, while everyone keeps a private budget of their own.
Meet Nuu
A companion, not a spreadsheet.
Nuu’s mood follows how your budget is doing. Run low and he looks worried. Move a little from an envelope with spare and he perks right back up.
Challenges and streaks earn gems to spend on Nuu’s room, the Pod. There’s a new Nuu Patches puzzle every day, eight colours to pick for Nuu, and seasonal collections like Halloween. Nuu buddies let friends keep each other going without ever seeing each other’s money.
How it runs
On the web, on Android, on your home screen.
Nuumey is a web app at app.nuumey.co.uk and an Android app on Google Play. On iPhone it runs in Safari and can be added to the home screen. Home screen widgets show your favourite envelopes at a glance.
Logging works offline and backs up to the cloud, so your phone, tablet and computer stay in step. Budgets are stored in the EU, and each person can only see their own. Shared budgets are open to the people invited to them, and nobody else.
