FAQ Q: Does this work in Excel, or just Google Sheets?

A: Both! You'll get an Excel file AND a Google Sheets link. Most debt trackers are Sheets-only — this one works in either.

Q: Do I need to be good with spreadsheets?

A: Not at all. You only type in the peach-colored cells; everything else calculates automatically.

Q: What's the difference between Snowball and Avalanche?

A: Snowball pays your smallest balance first for quick, motivating wins. Avalanche pays your highest-interest debt first to save the most money. The Compare tab shows you both — and the Custom option lets you set your own order.

Q: How many debts can I track?

A: Up to 10 — enough for credit cards, loans, medical bills and more.

Q: Will it work on my phone?

A: Yes — use the free Google Sheets app for the smoothest experience on mobile.

This is an instant digital download — there's nothing physical to ship. As soon as your payment goes through, you'll land on a confirmation page with your download link, and the same link arrives by email. Save the files somewhere you'll remember. If you lose the email, just message me and I'll resend it.

Open the spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel, or use the included How-to-Access PDF to copy it into free Google Sheets in one click — whichever you prefer. It's yours to reuse for as long as you need it. If anything's ever wrong with a file, message me and I'll make it right.
