Why do small business owners need a different kind of financial tool?

For the 27.6 million Americans who work as full-time independent professionals, business and personal finances aren’t really separate worlds. Every dollar earned or spent touches both sides. And yet, traditional financial tools have forced this audience to choose between business-focused software that treats personal finances as an afterthought — or personal finance apps that can’t handle invoicing, expense tracking, or tax reports.

The disconnected app problem

Most small business owners and freelancers end up cobbling together multiple tools — one for personal budgeting, another for business bookkeeping, maybe a third for invoicing. The result is a fragmented picture that makes it harder to understand your true financial position, plan ahead, or even know how much you can afford to pay yourself.

Business finances that exist in a vacuum

Enterprise-grade business software wasn’t designed for someone running a consulting practice from their home office. These tools are often overly complex, expensive, and completely disconnected from the personal side of your finances — which, for a solopreneur, is half the picture.

Personal finance apps that stop short

On the other hand, most personal finance apps don’t support core business needs like invoicing, profit and loss reports, or tax schedule generation. You end up with a great view of your personal spending but no visibility into the business that funds it.

What makes Quicken Business & Personal the right fit?

Quicken Business & Personal was designed specifically for this growing market of small business owners and self-employed workers. It’s a complete business finance solution built into an award-winning personal finance app — so users get the best of both worlds without compromise.

Everything in one place, cleanly separated

Mark each account as business or personal, and Quicken Business & Personal does the rest. Transactions are automatically downloaded and categorized, with clear views, dashboards, and reports that keep business and personal finances distinct. You get a complete picture of both — without the mess.

Built for how solopreneurs actually work

73% of Quicken Business & Personal users are solo operators — and the product reflects that reality. Instead of wading through features designed for larger businesses, users get exactly what they need: automatic expense tracking, invoicing with online payments through Stripe, time and expense logging, and built-in business reports including P&L, cash flow, balance sheets, and Schedules C, E & F.

A full personal finance app, not an afterthought

Quicken Business & Personal includes all the features of Quicken Simplifi, Quicken’s award-winning personal finance app. That means a spending plan, savings goals, investment tracking, a retirement planner, customizable alerts, and more — all working alongside your business tools in one subscription.

Your true net worth, at a glance

For self-employed workers, the value of their business is a personal asset. Quicken Business & Personal lets users see their complete net worth — business and personal — in one view, making it easier to plan ahead and make informed decisions.

How are real users putting it to work?

The numbers tell a compelling story. 87% of Quicken Business & Personal users engage with the platform weekly, and a full third manage multiple businesses within their single subscription.

A real-world perspective

“Nobody starts a business because they love accounting — you just want to tick that box and get back to the actual work. Before Quicken Business & Personal, I was juggling separate apps for business and personal finances, and it never gave me the full picture. Now I have deeper insights at half the price, and as a solopreneur, having everything in one place gives me the confidence to know I’m covered no matter what my cash flow looks like.” – Aaron Hulse, Founder at Cambio Global Consulting

Weekly engagement that speaks for itself

When 87% of users are logging in every week, it’s a strong signal that the product is delivering real, ongoing value — not just novelty that fades after the first month.

Multi-business support that saves money

33% of users manage multiple businesses within Quicken Business & Personal. While competitive products charge a separate subscription for each business, Quicken supports up to 10 businesses at one price. For someone with a consulting practice and a side business, that’s a significant advantage.

What new features help users grow and stay tax-ready?

Quicken Business & Personal continues to evolve with features designed to save users time on administrative work so they can focus on their actual business. Here’s what’s new.

Estimates

Create, send, and manage estimates directly in Quicken Business & Personal. Clients can review, approve, or request changes through a client portal — making it easier to get aligned on scope and pricing before work begins.

Mileage tracking

Every business mile driven is a potential tax deduction. The new in-app mileage tracker logs trips right alongside your other financial data and automatically calculates your deduction using current IRS rates. No more separate spreadsheets or forgetting to track a client visit. For a deeper look at mileage tracking and other tax-saving features, check out our guide to maximizing tax deductions with Quicken Business & Personal.

Quarterly tax planner and reminders

No more guessing what you owe or scrambling when quarterly taxes are due. The quarterly tax planner estimates your payments based on your actual income and expenses, updating in real time as your finances change. Built-in reminders help you stay on schedule and avoid underpayment penalties.

Sales receipts

Document and provide proof of work for non-invoice payments received at the time of service. For contractors collecting payment on-site, sales receipts make it easy to keep your records complete and professional — right inside Quicken Business & Personal.

How does the pricing compare?

Quicken Business & Personal offers full business and personal finance management at a price that’s significantly lower than competitive products — and that value only grows over time.

A 2-in-1 app at a better price

Most competing business finance tools don’t include a real personal finance app. That means users are paying for two separate subscriptions to get what Quicken Business & Personal delivers in one. Even when competitors offer steep introductory discounts, Quicken Business & Personal provides the better total value — for year one and beyond.

No per-business fees

Many competitors charge a separate subscription for each business. With Quicken Business & Personal, users can manage up to 10 businesses within a single subscription — a major cost advantage for anyone with multiple income streams.

Free support included

Every subscription includes free phone and chat support — including guided onboarding to help new users get set up and running quickly. No premium support tiers or extra charges.
