Basics

Getting started with Lane

Create your account, start your trial, and connect your first bank.

You signed up for another finance app and stalled at bank link — or connected once and never opened the dashboard again.

Sign up for Lane and choose a Starter or Pro plan. Every paid plan includes a free trial—card required, first charge after the trial ends.

Complete the short onboarding flow: choose your plan (7-day free trial, card required), then connect a US bank through Plaid. You can skip bank connection and link later from the dashboard.

Once connected, Lane syncs recent transactions and builds your cashflow chart automatically. Open the dashboard to review spending and recent activity.

Personal finance and side-business tracking — synced from your bank, not manual entry.

  • I used to export CSVs every Sunday and still couldn't tell if I was up for the month. Lane synced my accounts in a weekend—now I ask where the money went instead of guessing.

  • Turo payouts and groceries lived in one checking account. I spent months wondering if renting was worth it — the profit dashboard finally let me answer yes, with numbers, not guesswork.

  • Mint shut down and Credit Karma wasn't the same. Lane doesn't sell ads—it just shows synced cashflow and net worth. Budgeting isn't all here yet, but I finally see the full picture.
