App memberships and regular bills are paid on different days, so it can be hard to see what they add up to. The Subscriptions widget brings your recurring expenses together in a single monthly figure, shows the yearly equivalent and flags the ones renewing soon. That way you can see at a glance how much your regular payments come to.
In five steps we cover how to add the widget, record your recurring expenses and read the numbers. The widget takes its numbers from your records in Finance; if you haven't entered your regular payments yet, take a look at How to set up a recurring transaction.

On Overview, click Edit, then Add widget. In the Marketplace that opens, switch to the Pro tab and press the Add button on the Subscriptions card. You can read more about adding widgets in Add and remove widgets from the Marketplace.
If you don't have a recurring expense yet, the widget shows "Add a recurring expense and it shows up here."

Record your recurring expenses
The widget doesn't keep a separate list; it reads the expenses you've saved as recurring in Finance. To add one, open the Recurrence tab in the Add transaction window, switch on the toggle and pick a Frequency: Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Yearly.
Every recurring expense counts as a subscription. So alongside your app memberships, regular payments such as rent and bills show up here too. Recurring income and transfers aren't counted, which is also why installments you've set up as a transfer to a debt wallet don't appear here.

Read the monthly and yearly totals
The large figure at the top of the widget is the monthly equivalent of all your recurring expenses. The line right below it, such as "$1,841 per year", shows that same total over 12 months.
Payments at different frequencies are converted to a monthly amount and then added up: a yearly payment is divided by 12, a weekly payment counts about 4.3 times a month and a daily payment about 30.4 times. That's why a membership you pay for once a year also shows up in your monthly total.

See your most expensive subscriptions and upcoming renewals
Below the total, the five expenses with the highest monthly cost are listed, most expensive first. If you have more than five, the total covers all of them, but only the top five appear in the list.
If an expense on the list renews within the next 7 days, including today, a date such as "Renews Nov 12" appears under its name and its amount is highlighted. Clicking the widget takes you to the Finance screen.

Remove a subscription you've ended
When you cancel a subscription, you can open one of its occurrences that isn't due yet and set an End Date on the Recurrence tab; in the window that appears, just select All Occurrences. The payment that falls on the end date still goes through, and once that date has passed, the expense leaves the widget. If you don't want the next payment either, you can choose Delete From This Date in that occurrence's delete window; the expense leaves the widget when that payment's date arrives.
To delete the series entirely, choose Delete All Occurrences in the delete window of one of its occurrences that isn't due yet. The expense leaves the widget right away, and the payments that have already gone through stay in Finance as transactions.
Skip this occurrence removes just one date; the subscription carries on, so your monthly total doesn't change. If the date you skip is the nearest renewal, the next renewal date moves to the following occurrence.

Frequently asked questions
Can I remove rent from Subscriptions?
The widget automatically counts every recurring expense, and there's no option to exclude individual ones. To take an expense out of the total, you'd need to end its recurrence.
Why does the "Subscriptions" line in Finance show a different number?
In Finance, the line under the Expense card is the total of recurring payments that match the period and filters you've selected; a yearly payment only appears in the month it falls in. The widget, on the other hand, shows the monthly equivalent of all your recurring expenses, regardless of period or filters.
How are subscriptions in other currencies calculated?
All amounts are converted at the current rate into the currency you've set in the Convert option on the Finance screen. If you haven't chosen one, the default currency for your interface language is used. Items with no available rate aren't added to the total, and the widget shows how many there are at the bottom. If you've entered a fixed rate on a transaction, the widget uses the current rate instead. We explain how to work with several currencies in Multi-currency budget tracking.
Do subscriptions in wallets shared with me count too?
Recurring expenses in wallets shared with you are included in the total too, because the widget looks at every recurring expense you can see.
Can I use it on the Free plan?
The Subscriptions widget is available on Pro and higher plans. On the Free plan, the card shows an Upgrade to Pro button instead of Add, and you may also see a blurred preview of the widget on your Overview page. You can still set up recurring transactions on every plan and follow them on the Finance screen.
