What is Frich?

Frich is the first social finance app for Gen Z. Frich makes money social and brings accountability to personal finances by allowing users to set budgeting goals with friends and keep each other accountable. There are four main aspects of this app: personal challenges, challenges with friends, a dashboard displaying saving goals and a scoreboard exhibiting your progress compared to your friends. Every time you win a challenge, we reward you with free gift cards at your favorite spots in the city. Let’s hack your social life spendings and get F-rich together!

 

Why should I budget?

We are constantly under the pressure to keep up with our friends and, when we can’t afford something, it’s awkward to say “hey, it’s too expensive for me”. Of course, you want to join for the weekend brunch or Thursday night drinks! Budgeting will help you prioritize your spending and focus your money on the things that are most important to you. Being broke ain’t cute. Let’s get F-rich!
 

Where can I learn more about budgeting?

Education is essential to financial wellbeing. Our blog offers digestible and fun articles featuring the basics of budgeting, money saving tricks and crypto.

​​

When will Frich be available outside of the US?

Although we’re planning to offer Frich globally, we’re currently able to share it with users based in the US only. If you’re based somewhere outside the US but would like to use Frich, we would love for you to join our Testflight community. This is where we test the newest Frich developments and you’ll be able to use the app in its entirety, except connect your bank account (even add your US based friends, who are using the App Store version).

 

I can’t sign in to my account.

There’s a few things you can try:

1. Click “forgot password” under the “Sign in” button. You will receive an email with further instructions

2. If you don’t remember the email you used to create your Frich account, email us at hello@getfrich.com

 

How do I change my username/email address on file?

Your username is your first and last name, to change that follow these simple steps:

1. Click on the ‘⚙’ button to view settings.

2. Select the ‘Profile settings’ tab and directly edit your first and last name under your profile picture.

Unfortunately, we currently use your email address as your unique identifier so you won’t be able to change that.

 

I added my bank, but received an error message.

We’re sorry to hear that! In order to ensure that your data is fully secure and protected, we have partnered with Plaid. Check their website to see a list of banks they support. If yours is not on their list, we unfortunately cannot facilitate the integration of your bank account. If your bank is on their list, but you still receive an error message, please email us at hello@getfrich.com.

 

I can't find my account provider, what should I do?

My transactions are not showing up. What should I do?

To view your transactions, we’ve partnered with Plaid. Plaid is the industry leader in transaction categorization, but just like us, they are growing and improving every day. So mistakes might arise. There are a few reasons your transactions might not have showed up yet:

1. Plaid algorithms didn’t recognize the vendor your transaction was coming from

2. We make a “call” to check your transactions every few hours, so maybe we haven’t made the “call” yet

3. The transaction might have mistakenly been miscategorized as an expense that doesn’t fall into one of our six social life categories: bars, cabs, coffee shops, online shopping, ordering in and dining out

You can always go back in and enter a transaction manually if the algorithms have missed something. Sorry for the inconvenience, we’re growing and getting better every day!

Do I have to link my bank account to use Frich?

You don’t! But we highly recommend it to make your experience smoother and to make sure you see the true reflection of your spending habits. Trust us, we know all about wishful ignorance, when it comes to spendings :)

The process is facilitated by our partner Plaid. All you have to do is click on “Link bank account” during the signup process and you will be redirected to a Plaid pop-up page that will guide you through the process.

If you choose to skip linking your bank account during the signup process, you can always link your bank account later by going to the “Transactions” tab and clicking on the button “Link bank account” at the very bottom of the page.
