Free open-source personal and small-business accounting
GnuCash is free, open-source accounting software for personal and small-business use, implementing professional double-entry bookkeeping in a desktop application available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Mature and community-developed under the GPL, it tracks bank accounts, income and expenses, investments, and more without any license cost.
The platform provides double-entry accounting, a checkbook-style register, scheduled transactions, financial reports and graphs, budgeting, invoicing and accounts receivable/payable for small businesses, investment and stock tracking, and multi-currency support. As a long-standing open-source project, GnuCash is completely free, funded by donations, with no subscriptions, ads, or data collection.
GnuCash is entirely free and open source under the GPL - there are no paid tiers, subscriptions, or feature gates, and the project is supported by voluntary donations. A companion mobile app for Android lets users capture expenses on the go and import them into the desktop app. Aimed at individuals and small businesses wanting free, private accounting, it competes with Wave, Manager, Akaunting, QuickBooks, and Xero.
