Subscription Tracker

The average person spends over $200 per month on subscriptions without realizing it. This free subscription tracker helps you catalog every recurring charge, see your true monthly and annual cost, identify subscriptions worth canceling, and simulate how much you could save. Add your services below to get a complete picture of your subscription spending. No signup required.

How to Audit Your Subscriptions

1

Add Your Subscriptions

Use the Add button or Quick Add panel to enter each recurring subscription. Include the service name, amount, billing frequency, and category. Quick Add lets you one-click add popular services like Netflix, Spotify, and Adobe Creative Cloud with pre-filled prices.

2

Review Your Cost Dashboard

See your true total subscription cost broken down by month, year, week, and day. The dashboard updates instantly as you add or remove subscriptions, giving you a clear picture of your recurring spending.

3

Rate Each Subscription

For each subscription, rate how often you use it and how essential it is. The tool calculates a Cancel Worthiness Score that identifies which subscriptions offer the best value and which ones you should consider dropping.

4

Simulate Cancellation Savings

Check the "Simulate cancel" box on subscriptions you are considering dropping. The savings simulator shows your projected monthly, annual, and 5-year savings in real time, plus how much those savings could grow if invested.

5

Export and Take Action

Export your subscription list as a CSV file for your records. Use the insights from the cancel worthiness analysis to make informed decisions about which services to keep, downgrade, or cancel entirely.

Understanding Subscription Spending

The Subscription Creep Problem

Subscription creep is the gradual, often unnoticed accumulation of recurring charges. A streaming service here, a cloud storage plan there, a fitness app trial that auto- renewed — individually, each charge seems small. But collectively, they can consume a significant portion of your income. Research shows that the average consumer underestimates their total subscription spending by 2 to 3 times. A $10 per month subscription costs $120 per year. Stack ten of those, and you are spending $1,200 annually on services you may not even use regularly.

How to Evaluate Whether a Subscription Is Worth It

A subscription earns its keep when you use it frequently and it provides clear value relative to its cost. Ask yourself three questions for each service: How often do I actually use it? Could I get the same value from a free alternative or a one-time purchase? What would I do with the money if I cancelled it? The Cancel Worthiness Score in this tool formalizes this evaluation by combining your self-reported usage frequency and essentiality rating into a single score that highlights which subscriptions deliver the most and least value per dollar.

The Opportunity Cost of Unused Subscriptions

Beyond the direct cost, unused subscriptions carry an opportunity cost. Every dollar spent on a service you rarely use is a dollar that could be invested, saved toward a goal, or used to pay down debt. If you cancelled just $50 per month in low-value subscriptions and invested that amount at a 7% average annual return, you would accumulate roughly $8,700 in 10 years and over $26,000 in 20 years. The savings simulator in this tool helps you visualize this opportunity cost so you can make informed decisions about where your recurring dollars are best spent.
