Lehi — Qube Money, an up-and-coming financial technology company, was selected as the #1 budgeting app as part of the 2021 Smart Money Awards.

Real Simple compiled a list of top financial companies offering products that debuted (or were updated) between January 2020 and June 2021. A panel of 14 judges rated products ranging from budgeting, banking, insurance, real estate, etc. on innovativeness and relevance to Real Simple readers.

A few of the judges included Erin Lowry, author of the three-part book series Broke Millennial and Talaat and Tai Mcneely, money and marriage experts and co-hosts of the podcast The His and Her Money Show.

“It is a real honor to be selected as a winner of the Smart Money Awards and to be placed among the top financial apps,” said Ryan Clark, founder and CEO of Qube Money. “We’re changing the environment of spending and giving control back to the people with our patented digital banking system which empowers them to save money and stick to a budget.”

Clarity about your cash flow is “the foundation upon which your financial house is built,” says Manisha Thakor, a Smart Money Awards judge. Beyond getting you to create a careful budget, Qube might even change your mindset about spending. “Increasingly, I see people ‘leak’ money through seemingly small, inconsequential purchases,” Thakor says. “In today’s I-want-it-right-now-and-I-can-buy-it-with-one-click world, having to choose which qube you’re using forces you to slow down and think about how much you really want this item.”
