- Questions
The doubts, answered here.
No buried help page. The things people pause on, handled right at the decision.
Can I keep my own bank?
Yes. You can connect most banks, and Profit First will read your balances and tell you exactly what to move on transfer day. You make those transfers yourself. With a Dream First Bank account, the app does the moving for you automatically.
Won't taking profit first starve the business?
It is the most common worry, and the opposite usually happens. When there is a little less sitting in the operating account, you get sharper about what the business really needs, and you find leaner ways to do the same work. Most owners say the business runs better, not tighter.
Is this accounting software?
No. Accounting software records what already happened. Profit First decides where your money goes as it comes in, so you always know what is safe to spend. It works alongside your bookkeeper or accountant, it does not replace them.
Do I need to be good with numbers?
No. Answer one question about your revenue and the app works out your percentages for you, then does the math on every deposit. You just see four clear balances and one number for what is safe to spend.
What happens after the 30 days?
You pick the plan that fits, or stay on the free one and keep the system running. We will remind you before the trial ends. Nothing gets charged and nothing changes without you choosing it.
