Bills & Subscriptions Tracker in Excel with Due Date Alerts

Small subscriptions add up without notice, and bills with different cycles (monthly, quarterly, yearly) are easy to forget until the late notice arrives.

This sheet puts them in one place: amount, frequency and next due date. It calculates the monthly equivalent of every item, even yearly bills, and tells you what you really pay each month and year.

• Use auto-pay for fixed bills where you can.

Frequently asked questions

Why calculate a monthly equivalent?

Yearly and semi-annual bills disappear from monthly budgets and then surprise you; the monthly equivalent shows their real weight.

Does the due date roll forward automatically?

No, update it after each payment and the status resets.

Can I add categories?

Yes, after unprotecting the sheet and editing the category list.
