To set up accounts in Extrack, open the Accounts page and tap "New account". Pick a type (Checking / savings, Credit card, Loan, Investment, Other), give the account a short label, set the opening balance (the field name adapts to the type), and save. Repeat for every real account — bank, credit card, loan, investment. Most users finish in under five minutes.

Steps

  1. Open Accounts → "New account"

    The button is at the top-right of the Accounts page.

  2. Pick the type

    Type-specific fields surface — e.g. statement day for Credit card, loan rate for Loan, etc.

  3. Set the opening balance

    Label adapts: "Starting balance" / "Credit limit" / "Principal owed (opening)" / "Principal lent (opening)".

  4. Save and repeat

    Add every account you actually use. Most users have 3–15.

Frequently asked

Should I add my UPI as a separate account?

No. UPI uses your bank balance. Add the underlying bank only.
