Setting a Increasing or decreasing Income or cost will allow you to:

  • See the visual impact of the change

  • Plan ahead

  • Make informed decisions

In Float you have the option to create an Income or Cost that increases or decreases with each occurrence. This can be by a set amount or percentage.

First, click the + sign next to an account name, or alternatively use the Blue 'Add' button to bring up the Income/cost popup.


​This will bring up a pop up on the right hand side. From here you can fill in the date, amount and frequency of the repeating income/cost.

At the bottom of the section you will see an option to select Amount increases/decreases each month

This will bring up a further option to choose whether to increase/decrease by a set amount or percentage.

Once you’re happy with the options, select save and the repeating income or cost will be added to the cash flow.

  • Increasing amounts continue to be calculated until the budget end date (if there is one) or in perpetuity if ‘never’ is selected

  • Decreasing budgets will eventually hit zero and when that happens, it will continue to show ‘0’ until edited.



To edit an existing Income or cost, simply click into the existing value and then the Edit repeating schedule button. An Increase or decrease can be added from here.
