Comparison

Coinly vs Monarch Money — when one household isn't the whole picture.

Monarch is a great US household tracker. Coinly is what you reach for when you also run a boat, a side business, a holiday home or a multi-currency life — with real co-owner access instead of shared logins.

Why people switch to Coinly

  • They outgrew a household tracker — a boat, a holiday home or a side business needs its own books.
  • They share finances with a co-owner, captain, partner or accountant — and want per-asset roles, not a shared login.
  • They hold cash in EUR, USD, GBP and need one truthful number across them.
  • They want AI to read receipts and warranties, not just categorise bank transactions.

When Monarch is still the right pick

  • You're US-based, single currency, and want a polished household + investments tracker.
  • You don't need per-asset separation — one combined view fits how you think.
  • You don't share access beyond a partner.

Both are good tools. Pick the one that fits your life, not the other way around.
