  • ✓Ask your bank for a fee review, or move you to a cheaper account
  • ✓Move debit orders to the day after payday
  • ✓Cancel subscriptions you've stopped using
  • ✓Question price increases and ask for a better deal

“I built Tjommie for South Africans who work hard and still feel the squeeze at month-end.”

Morné Augustyn, founder · Why I built Tjommie

Fair questions.

Why three months of statements?

One month can mislead. With three, Tjommie can tell which debit orders really come back every month, spot price increases, and see whether you run short every month or only once.

What will Tjommie do for me?

Soon, the admin behind your plan: fee reviews, debit order date changes, cancellations and price questions, each only after you tap Approve. Tjommie never moves money, never signs you up for credit, and tells you exactly what it sent and to whom.

Is this financial advice?

No. Tjommie shows you facts from your own statements and explains your options. Investment advice only comes from a licensed adviser, and only if you ask for it.

Do banks pay you to rank them?

The comparison is always ordered by what each account would cost you. If we earn a referral fee one day, it won't change that order.

Where is my data stored?

In London, United Kingdom, locked to your account. Our privacy policy lists every company that helps us and why, as South Africa's POPIA requires.

What does it cost?

Tjommie is free while we test with early users. If that ever changes, you'll hear from us well before you pay a cent.

Can't I just link my bank?

South Africa doesn't have regulated open banking yet, so PDFs are the safe way today. It also means you never hand anyone your banking login.

GET EARLY ACCESS

Stop doing money admin.
Let Tjommie do it.

One tjommie instead of five apps and a spreadsheet. Be first in line when we open, and first to try Approve when it goes live.

Free while we test. No spam. Ask and we'll take you off the list any time.
