What students are saying

Sprout is built by students, for students. Here's what they have to say about us.

It's like someone finally understood how weird college money is. Sometimes you get $3k at once, and then nothing. Sprout just makes it make sense.

Makayla Johnson

I never thought I'd use a budgeting app, but Sprout is so simple and it actually helps me feel in control

Christina Matthews

This app gave me way more peace of mind than I expected. I used to avoid looking at my bank account after rent came out.

Sofia Marquez

"

I used to just Venmo my rent, buy groceries, and hope for the best. Sprout helped me actually make a plan.

James Wilson

"

I'm not great with money, but this app made it click. I even started saving my summer trip.

Emma Chen

"

I wish I had this my freshman year. Would've saved me so much stress.

Unlike generic budgeting tools, Sprout is designed specifically for college students who receive money in lump sums—like financial aid or scholarships. We help you stretch that money over the semester with a simple, guided plan.

When Sprout officially launches, it will be free for a semester so you can try it out and see how it helps you stay on track. No commitment required.

Spreadsheets are tedious and stressful. Our app simplifies budgeting with a custom plan, automated tracking, and helpful alerts, saving you valuable time and giving you peace of mind.

Not at all! You'll be budgeting within minutes. Just connect your bank, set your essential needs and savings goals, and we'll handle the rest.

No problem! Sprout is built for students with irregular income. Whether you're living off a single lump sum or picking up random shifts, we help you plan around what you have and adjust as needed.
