Keep your Good Steward Local price
If you pay for Good Steward Local, confirm your email address to carry your price over to Good Steward Money.
Updated November 10, 2026
If you pay for Good Steward Local, the previous app, you can keep your price in Good Steward Money. Confirm that your email address is yours, then choose the matching plan.
Before you start
- Use the same email address as your Good Steward Local subscription.
- Confirm before you choose a plan. A plan you start first does not carry your price.
Steps
- Select your initial or name at the bottom of the sidebar, then choose Billing (on a phone, select the More tab, then Billing).
- Check your email for "Confirm your Good Steward Local subscription". The first time you open the page without a plan, Good Steward sends it if it finds a Good Steward Local subscription under your address. The page does not say whether it found one.
- If no email arrives within a few minutes, or the link expired, select Email me a new link in the Already paying for Good Steward Local? card. A new link replaces the one before it.
- Select the link in the email within one hour. If you are signed out, sign in first, then select the link again.
- Read the message near the top of Billing. It starts "Confirmed." and names the plan and billing period to choose.
- Select the button on that plan card and finish checkout. See Start a plan or free trial.
Import your Good Steward Local data after you choose a plan.
What you keep
The matching plan has the same bank limit as your Good Steward Local plan.
| Your Good Steward Local subscription | In Good Steward Money |
|---|---|
| Monthly | You keep your monthly price. The plan card shows "Your price: {amount} a month". |
| Yearly | The yearly price is the same in both apps. The plan card shows "Your price: {amount} a year". |
| Life Time Free | The matching plan stays free, with no trial and no card needed. The plan card shows "Your price: free". |
Your price applies to that plan and billing period only.
When you are charged
For a paid subscription, your plan starts the day you finish checkout and your first payment is on the day your Good Steward Local subscription ends. There is no 30-day trial first, and the plan card button reads Select. The message can end with "Nothing is charged until {date}." Without that sentence, checkout charges your card the day you subscribe, which happens when your Good Steward Local subscription ends in less than 2 days.
If you pay for Good Steward Local yearly and choose a monthly plan, the plan starts as a free period that ends on the day your Good Steward Local subscription ends, and your first payment is then.
Your Good Steward Local subscription ends with the period you paid for and does not renew.
After you subscribe
Until your first payment, Billing shows "Paid through Good Steward Local until {date}" and "First payment: {amount} on {date}." The chip under the logo in the sidebar reads "First payment {date}". After your first payment, the status card shows your plan and renewal date as usual.
Good Steward Money sends two emails: "Your move to Good Steward Money is set up" when you finish checkout, and "Your first Good Steward Money payment is on {date}" 7 days before the first payment. The second is not sent when the first payment is within 7 days of checkout. You do not get the free-trial emails. Good Steward Local may send you one email when it ends. See Emails Good Steward sends.
If it does not work
- "That link is no longer valid." The link expired, a newer link replaced it, or it belongs to another account. Sign in to the account you used and request a new link. If you received more than one email, use the newest one.
- Asking again within 5 minutes of the last email sends nothing, so the link you already have keeps working. After 3 requests in an hour, no more emails arrive. In both cases the page still says it sent one.
- A subscription is not matched if it is inactive, has a discount other than Life Time Free, is one of several, or is not a standard Good Steward Local plan. Email support@goodsteward.io.
