Frequently Asked Questions

Clear Answers About Merovia

Is Merovia a licensed financial advisory service?

No. Merovia is strictly expense tracking software. It provides tools for logging transactions and setting spending limits, but does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or wealth management services.

How much does Merovia cost after the free trial?

The Standard plan costs $14 CAD per month after the 14-day trial. You can downgrade to the free Starter plan at any time.

How does the app assist with impulsive purchasing?

You set maximum dollar limits on non-essential categories like dining or retail. Merovia tracks posted pending transactions and notifies you when you reach threshold limits before you make further discretionary buys.

Is my Canadian bank account data safe?

Merovia uses read-only secure bank connections powered by encrypted account aggregators. The app cannot move funds, initiate payments, or alter your bank accounts.

Can I cancel my subscription whenever I want?

Yes. You can cancel your subscription in account settings with one click. Access remains active until the end of your current monthly billing period.

How long does it take to configure spending caps?

Connecting a bank feed and establishing baseline spending rules for non-essential categories typically takes under ten minutes.
