Spending Insights
Visualize your spending with charts, trends, and category breakdowns. Understand your habits so you can change them.
Key features
Multiple chart types
Switch between bar, line, and donut charts to understand your spending from different angles.
Smart time ranges
View insights over 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, or 1 year to spot short-term spikes and long-term trends.
Category breakdown
See exactly how much each category contributes to your total spend and what percentage it represents.
Average per period
Track your average spending per week or per month with clear reference lines and labels.
Built on your real data
Insights are powered by the same budget cycles and transactions you log in CediWise.
Designed for Ghana
Spending insights tuned to Ghanaian spending patterns, from food and transport to bills and mobile money.
How it works
The Spending Insights dashboard turns your raw transactions into clear visuals. Each time you log an expense in CediWise, it feeds into your charts and category breakdowns — so you always have an up-to-date view of where your money is going.
Choose between bar, line, and donut views. Bar charts show how much you spent in each period, line charts highlight trends over time, and donut charts show how your spending is split across categories.
Time ranges that match real life
Switch between 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, and 1 year. Short ranges help you catch recent spikes — like an expensive week of transport or food — while longer ranges reveal patterns in your lifestyle. The average per period line makes it easy to see when you are above or below your usual spend.
By category, at a glance
Every cedi you spend is assigned to a category. The insights view shows how much you spent in each category, plus what percentage of your total it represents. That way, you can quickly see if food, transport, subscriptions, or another category is quietly taking over your budget.
Why it matters
Most people know they are overspending — they just don't know exactly where. Spending Insights gives you the clarity to act. Once you can see your patterns, you can set better limits, adjust categories, and build habits that support your goals instead of fighting them.
