Month total

12,300 HTG · 45 USD

Two totals, never just one: no conversion, no forced exchange rate.

Gourdes and dollars

Every expense keeps its currency.

Twenty dollars of gas stays twenty dollars. Your totals are shown side by side — 12,300 HTG · 45 USD — no forced conversion, no questionable exchange rate.

And when you just say “100 dola”, Ekono knows that in Haiti it often means 500 gourdes. It shows you, and one tap fixes it if you meant US dollars.
