View all your finances in one placeView Image >>

View all your finances in one place1

Bring your online accounts -- including banking, credit card, loan, 401(k), and investing accounts -- together all in one place. Avoid the hassle of going to multiple web sites and remembering multiple passwords. With Quicken, you see it all in one place and you need just ONE password.1

See where your money is going (a.k.a. "money management")

Check in anytime to see exactly where your personal finances are at for the month. Quicken shows you what you have coming in, going out, and most importantly, what's left over each month to spend or save.

 
Pay your bills on timeView Image >>

Pay your bills on time

Like Starter Edition, see a monthly calendar of your paychecks, bills and expenses to help you schedule bills, set reminders and -- most importantly -- help avoid late fees. Easily pay bills from within Quicken using Quicken Bill Pay or a third party bill pay service.2

 
New! See where you can save moreView Image >>

New! See where you can save more

A new "My Savings Plan" instantly shows a summary of your actual spending and compares it to what you planned to spend for the month. You can quickly see where you have room to spend or save more. Set flexible spending targets on regular expenses like gas and groceries and then easily check your progress throughout the month.

 
Work with TurboTax

Save time at tax time - Works with TurboTax3

Like Quicken Starter Edition, Quicken Deluxe makes it easy to mark expenses as tax deductible through the year, so you have everything ready come tax time. Quicken Deluxe also exports your data directly to TurboTax, so you won't have to re-enter the same information twice.3

 
Store important documents and statements in one placeView Image >>
