# Does Kesef tell me how much I can spend per day?

**In short:** Yes. In Budgets, the summary tells you whether you're on track, spending fast or over, and how much you can spend per day until the period closes: "About $13.50 a day until the 31st". Each category shows the same and, if you're going fast, the day it runs out at that pace. It's free, with up to 3 budgets; unlimited with Pro.

The maths is simple: what's left of the budget divided by the days left until the close. What makes it useful is that it's recalculated every time you log an expense and that it follows your period, not the calendar month: if your month starts on payday, the "per day" runs until the next payday. You're going fast when, at this pace, the budget runs out before the close; the app tells you which day.

## More detail

- On track: at this pace you reach the close with budget to spare.
- Going fast: at this pace it runs out earlier; the category says which day.
- Over: you've already passed the category's or the total's cap.
