MoneyHub is closing: export your data, and think about what you actually want next

MoneyHub was one of the good ones. If you are reading this you probably care about your money, and you are facing two questions: how do I get my data out, and where do I go next? This guide answers the first properly, and gives you an honest answer to the second.

First: get your data out before 14 August

Whatever you decide, export now. MoneyHub can close dormant accounts early — roughly after 90 days of inactivity — so do not leave it.

1. Open MoneyHub and go to Transactions.
2. Tap the cloud icon.
3. Choose Begin Download or Email as Attachment — you will get a CSV.

For the fullest copy of everything they hold on you, you can also make a subject access request under UK GDPR, though that can take up to a month.

Where you go next depends on what you used MoneyHub for

• If you loved the live bank feed and categorising day-to-day spending — you want another spending tracker. Look at Emma, Snoop or YNAB. That is genuinely not what WealthR is, and we would rather tell you than have you switch and be disappointed.
• If what you really valued was seeing everything in one place — your whole financial picture — that is a net-worth instinct, and it is where a tool like WealthR fits.

An honest note on where WealthR fits

We are not a like-for-like MoneyHub replacement, and we will not pretend to be. MoneyHub was a spending tracker with live bank connections. WealthR is a wealth tracker and planner: it shows your total net worth, whether you are on track, and roughly when you could reach financial independence. There is no live bank feed; you keep your figures current yourself.

For people who valued MoneyHub for the big picture rather than the transaction feed, that is an upgrade. For everyone else, one of the spending trackers above will suit you better — and that is fine.

Bringing your data in (a couple of minutes)

WealthR has a built-in import, so you do not have to type everything in:

1. Create a WealthR account.
2. Go to Settings → Import your data (or choose "Import my accounts" when you sign up).
3. Upload your MoneyHub CSV. WealthR reads it in your browser, turns your accounts into a net-worth snapshot, and can build a starter budget from your spending — you just confirm your balances.
4. Set your target and see your net worth, forecast and financial-independence number.

Your file is read on your device and then discarded — nothing is uploaded — and you can undo the import at any time. Full steps are in the import guide.

Do not leave it until August

The deadline is real and the deletion is permanent. Even if you are weighing up other apps, export your MoneyHub data today so the choice stays yours. If the whole-picture view is what you are after, WealthR is built for exactly that. If it is live spending tracking, no hard feelings — grab your data and find the tool that fits.
