Every payment coming in or going out, before it happens

Upcoming is one list of what is about to happen to your money: the bills due, the pay coming in, the payments you are waiting on and the transfers between your own accounts — built from your own transactions, and free on every plan.

Four kinds of money, one list

A bill tracker that only knows about bills tells you half the story. Upcoming puts what is going out beside what is coming in, in date order, and totals both for what is still to come — so “can I pay the rates before the next pay lands?” is a glance, not a sum. Totals are kept per currency.

Bills

The next payment of every bill Fin found repeating in your transactions, or that you added yourself — rates, insurance, rent, subscriptions — each with its date and what the last ones cost.

Money you are owed

Expected income: who owes it, how much and when. It stays on the list until the payment lands and Fin links it, and it counts as income only when the money arrives.

Pay days

Estimated pay days for each employer, from your pay history or from an employer you added by hand with the figures off a payslip.

Moving

Transfers and investments between your own accounts. Shown so you know they are coming, and never counted in money in, money out or the net.

Choose how far ahead to look

The page opens on the next 14 days. Switch to the next 7, 30 or 90 days, this month, next month, or dates of your own. Your dashboard keeps a card with the next 14 days and a way to add a bill or money you expect without leaving it. If you track properties, the list follows the property you choose in the lens, so a landlord can see what is due at one address. How properties work.

Needs a look: the four things worth a second

Above the list sits whatever needs a decision from you. Each one is a question with a one-tap answer, so the list stays right without you having to audit it.

Is this the payment?

A payment that might be the one you were owed, or the bill you expected, with Yes and No.

Overdue

Bills whose date has passed with no payment seen, and money owed that has not arrived.

Repeats Fin noticed

Payments that look like they repeat. Track it, Not a repeat, or It’s my pay — nothing is tracked until you choose.

Looks off

A bill that is late, missing, larger or smaller than usual, or an extra payment. The detail is on the recurring patterns page.

Money you are owed, matched when it lands

Add expected income with who owes it, the amount, the due date and, if you like, the invoice number, whether GST is included and whether it repeats. When a payment arrives, Fin links it automatically only when it is certain: the exact amount owed, from the payer named in full or carrying the invoice reference, with nothing else close. Anything less certain is asked as a question. Part payments mark the item partly received, an item that will never be paid can be written off, and a payment Fin missed can be pointed at what it pays from the transaction itself. An item is income on the day the money arrives, not the day you add it.

Invoices you upload or forward

Upload a PDF or a photo of an invoice — or, on AUTO+, forward it to your own 2Fin address — and Fin reads it and asks one question: is this an invoice you sent, or a bill to pay? Add it to expected income, add it as a bill, or say it is not an invoice. Nothing is saved until you confirm.

Tracking, not invoicing

2Fin does not create or send invoices, by design: you invoice in your own tool and 2Fin sees the payment arrive. That keeps one invoicing system — the one your clients already pay — while your income, GST and tax estimate stay current. For a job and a side business.

Where the list comes from

Bills on Upcoming come from recurring patterns: Fin reads up to 18 months of your transactions, in both directions, and suggests the payments that repeat on a regular rhythm at a similar amount. You choose which to track, and each tracked pattern schedules its next payments here. How recurring patterns and their alerts work. Pay days come from your income streams; expected income is what you add. Bring transactions in from a bank feed you set up yourself, a statement upload or a spreadsheet feed — no banking password ever reaches Fin.

Upcoming, answered

Questions about Upcoming

Is there an app that shows bills and income on one list?
Yes. Upcoming in 2Fin puts your bills, the pay days of each employer, the payments you are waiting on and your transfers on one list, in date order, for the window you choose. Money in and money out are totalled for what is still to come, so you can see whether the next fortnight works before it starts.
Will 2Fin remind me before a bill is due?
It shows you rather than messaging you. The next payment of every bill sits on Upcoming with its date, overdue ones are flagged, and a bill that is late or larger than usual raises an alert inside the app — on Upcoming, on the dashboard and on the pattern itself. Nothing is sent by email or push notification.
Why are my transfers not counted in money in and money out?
Because moving money between your own accounts is not spending or earning. A transfer to your savings account or a top-up of an investment account appears on the list under Moving, so you know it is coming, but it is never added to money in, money out or the net. Counting both sides of a transfer would make every total wrong.
How does Fin know a payment is the one I was owed?
Fin links a payment to what you are owed automatically only when two things are both true: the amount is exactly what is owed, and either the payer is named in full or the invoice reference matches. No other item can be close behind. Anything less certain becomes a question — Is this the payment? — with Yes and No. A part payment marks the item as partly received, and you can write off what will not arrive.
Does 2Fin send invoices for me?
No, by design. Keep invoicing in the tool you already use. Add what a client owes you to Upcoming, or upload the invoice and confirm it, and when the payment lands Fin links it and counts it as income on the day the money arrives. Bills you receive can be added the same way.
Do I need to connect my bank for Upcoming to work?
No. Upcoming is built from whatever transactions you bring in: a bank feed you set up yourself with BankSync or SimpleFIN, statements uploaded as CSV, Excel, PDF or OFX files, or a spreadsheet feed. The more history it reads, the more of your repeating payments it can find.
Is Upcoming on the free plan?
Yes. Upcoming, recurring patterns and expected income are on every plan, including Free. Forwarding invoices to your own address by email is on the AUTO+ plan.
