Irregular Income Needs More Than a Spreadsheet

You have three active clients this month, a retainer that pays on the 15th, a one-off project that just wrapped, and a fourth client who pays in USD while you're based in Brazil. Meanwhile, you're logging receipts for software subscriptions, a new laptop, coffee shop work sessions, and the course you took for professional development.

Most personal finance apps are built for salary earners with predictable, single-currency income. Freelancers need something that handles variability — different clients, different project sizes, different currencies, and the discipline to track business expenses through the year so tax season isn't a nightmare.

Folko lets you create a separate cashbook for each client or project, or one master cashbook for your freelance business as a whole. Log income when it arrives, expenses as they happen, and export everything when it's time to hand off to your accountant — in PDF, CSV, or Excel.

One Cashbook Per Client, or One Master Cashbook — Your Call

The right structure depends on how you work. Folko gives you the flexibility to organize your finances the way your brain works.

Acme Corp Project

Track income from this client separately. Log project-specific expenses. See profitability per client.

Retainer Clients

Monthly recurring income from two retainer clients, with associated expenses. Visible at a glance.

Freelance Business

One consolidated cashbook: all client income in, all business expenses out. Clean P&L picture.

Personal Budget

Separate from business. Track personal spending, salary you pay yourself, and personal savings goals.

Built for How Freelancers Actually Work

International client, different currency: You invoice a German agency in EUR. The payment lands in your account. Log it in EUR and Folko converts it to your home currency at the daily exchange rate. No manual conversion, no fumbling with XE.com. Your income records are always in the right currency for reporting.

💸

Multiple Income Streams

Log income from each client separately: project fees, retainers, royalties, consulting day rates. The Spending Overview shows your income breakdown so you know which clients drive your business.

🌍

150+ Currencies

Work with clients in USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, or any of 150+ currencies. Live exchange rates updated daily. Log in the client's currency, see totals in yours.

📷

Receipt OCR Scanning

Point your camera at a receipt from the coffee shop, software subscription email, or hardware store. Folko reads the amount and merchant instantly. No manual data entry, no lost receipts in your bag.

📊

Export for Your Accountant

Generate PDF, CSV, or Excel reports for any cashbook, any date range. Send your accountant a clean record of all income and expenses — no reconciliation gymnastics required.

🏷️

Categorize Everything

Tag expenses by category: software tools, travel, equipment, professional development, office supplies. The Spending Overview then shows where your business costs are concentrated.

📱

Log On the Go

Bought something for a client project while you're out? Log it immediately before you forget. Works offline — syncs when you're back on wifi. No expense disappears because you forgot to log it later.

Hand Your Accountant a Clean Record, Not a Shoebox

Tax time is painful for freelancers who tracked expenses inconsistently. With Folko, the discipline is built into your daily habit. By the time you need to file, everything is already there.
