To continue our series of comparisons to help you find the best money management app to cater to your needs, next up, we thought we’d take a look at Snoop.
Visually, Moneyhub and Snoop are very different. Moneyhub has a clean & simple dashboard, whereas Snoop has a fun and vibrant appearance, a similar style to popular social media apps.
“I was surprised that I’d never heard of Moneyhub before. I have previously used Emma which has a nice interface but since restricting the amount of accounts you can connect to I can’t ever see myself paying for it and recently Snoop which I may prefer but is currently quite low on features (and not yet integrated with Chase) This app does everything I need it to do and I am amazed by how many features it has and after the six month free period I may well be persuaded to subscribe. I am not sure yet what their notifications are like in terms of budgeting/recommendations etc but so far very happy with it”
The first 6 months of your subscription to Moneyhub is 100% free, this is to allow you to get to grips with Moneyhub properly, align it to your pay cycle & utilise the features we have. We have no auto-renewal, so you will not be charged the subscription fee unless you decide to sign up for the paid version.
If you decide to stick with us, our fee is £1.49 a month or £14.99 a year. We will never sell your data to third parties and our low subscription fee is because we also license our developed software in the B2B market.
Snoop is completely free and will never charge you unless you decide to upgrade to Snoop Plus for £4.99 a month or £31.99 a year. There are some limitations on features to be aware of too on the free version. However, the reason they don’t charge for their standard free subscription is that they will sell your data. So if your data privacy is an issue then Snoop may not be for you. They also recommend a lot of third-party products for which they will get referral fees.
We’ve sorted a few comparisons below to outline some of the most important features users look for when analysing different money management platforms.
* Feature limitations in place on the free tier or are only available for Snoop Plus subscribers
One of the great features of Moneyhub is that you can connect your property via Zoopla and connect your vehicles via Autotrader in order to get a more accurate net worth estimation on your dashboard. You can also boost your credit score by sharing the details of your recurring rent payments with credit agency Experian, using our rental recognition feature. Sharing this information shows that you can make regular payments on time and will help build your credit score.
In addition, Moneyhub also connects to your pensions, investments, loans and mortgages to allow you as much control over your finances as possible. This is not something Snoop currently offer, however, they have reported “We hope in time to have more types of products connected to Snoop but right now we only support available Open Banking accounts.”.
A benefit to Snoop is that they promote special offers and exclusive deals where you can cut your costs.
