Say hello to your Bills Jar! A dedicated account just for your Bills, that's 100% separate from your regular checking account.
Tracking and paying all of your bills & subscriptions just got a whole lot easier. All part of Douugh helping you to organize and better manage your money, and ensuring you're set up for success.
With your new Bills Jar, you can set aside money that's specifically for your bills, so you can have peace of mind knowing you have enough to cover your upcoming bill payments (and less chance of spending it). This means you can splurge guilt-free knowing the available balance in your Douugh checking account is safe to spend - on things like dining, entertainment, and more! Keep that calculator in the drawer and say so long to that continual thought of if I buy this, do I have enough money left to pay for my remaining bills? 👋
