About
Trim — now operating as OneMain MyMoney — is a personal finance and money management platform designed to give users full visibility into where every dollar goes. Originally known for its ability to cancel unwanted subscriptions and negotiate bills on behalf of users, Trim has evolved into a comprehensive financial insights tool under the OneMain Financial umbrella. The platform automatically analyzes your bank and card transactions to surface recurring subscriptions you may have forgotten about, helping you identify and eliminate wasteful spending. Real-time updates keep you informed about your financial activity as it happens, so you're never caught off guard by charges or overdrafts. OneMain MyMoney is accessible from any device — whether on a desktop browser or a mobile phone — making it easy to stay on top of your finances wherever you are. Sign-up takes under two minutes and the core service is completely free. More than 3 million users have leveraged the platform for subscription management, expense tracking, bill negotiation assistance, and personalized savings recommendations. It is particularly useful for individuals looking to simplify budgeting, cut recurring costs, and build healthier financial habits without needing to be financial experts themselves.
