Like the Budget Tracker by Notion, this template is a simple budget planner. All it does is help you manage your finances.
It has no income sections, but you can add your monthly expenses and see how much you spend.
The template is perfect for me because my earnings vary every month, so I only calculate how much I spend.

With over 300 downloads and with an average 5-star rating, it’s one of the best Budget templates for Notion.
As the name suggests, it is a minimalist design but rich in options. First, you add your bank accounts with balance and stuff.
Some of the options are automated, so adjusting one will reflect others. Then, it has expenses and income sections side-by-side.
The following area then lets you add payees, revenue, and payers. It has a sleek button to the left to quickly add a new account, expense, or income.
The template is available through Gumroad, but it costs nothing. You can tip the creator if you like.
