Friday found $212 a month you were wasting

The booking app you replaced, the marketing tool nobody logs into, the card fee that quietly went up. Friday looks through what you pay for and tells you what to cut.

Wednesday, 1:30 pm

Can you look at what we pay for every month? Feels like a lot.

Friday

I went through your statements. You're paying for two scheduling apps, and you haven't logged into the old one since April. That's $89 a month.

Your email marketing plan is billed for 5,000 contacts. You have 640. The cheaper tier is $38 less.

And your card processing rate went up in June. Here are two processors that would save about $85 a month at your volume.

That's almost $2,500 a year. Cancel the old app.

Friday

Done. I'll handle the downgrade too, and I'll send the processor comparison tonight.

Small business software is sold one reasonable monthly fee at a time. Then you switch tools, forget to cancel, grow out of one plan and into another, and a year later you're paying for things nobody uses.

Why nobody catches it

Checking means logging into a dozen accounts, reading statements line by line and sitting on hold to cancel. It's never urgent, so it never happens.

What Friday does

Friday pays for herself

If you've switched tools in the last few years, there's a good chance you're still paying for one you forgot. Finding it once can cover Friday's $299 for the month.
