Flip
The cheeky gold coin
Cheeky, quick and a show-off. Small and proud of it.
“I only flip for style. The answer is already decided: wait.”
Coming soon to iOS and Android
Buy it now, or wait?
Snap a shelf tag, a receipt or paste a link. CoinKin checks other stores and the price history, weighs it against your own money, and a talking buddy gives you a straight answer.

Flip saysI only flip for style. The answer is already decided: wait.
How it works
Three steps, a few seconds, one answer.
Snap, paste or say it
Point the camera at a shelf tag or a receipt, paste a product link, or just ask out loud.
It checks the market
Other stores with delivery counted in, and what the price did over the last 90 days.
It checks your money
Your income, payday, bills, goal and balance decide what is safe to spend. Then your buddy gives the verdict.
Buy or wait?
Four verdicts. No maybe.
Every check ends in one clear answer, with the evidence right underneath.
-
Buy now
The price is good and it fits your money. Go for it.
-
Wait
It usually gets cheaper, or a sale is coming. Your buddy can remind you.
-
Buy elsewhere
Another store has it for less, delivery included.
-
Not this month
It would eat into your bills or your goal. Try again after payday.
The five
Meet the five
Same rules, different voice. Pick the one you like and switch any time.

-
Vault
The steel safe on guard
Disciplined, loyal and firm. Says no without drama and yes without fuss.
“Over budget this month. Request denied. The safe stays shut.”
-
Jingle
The little glass money jar
Sweet, cheerful and easily amazed. Celebrates every small win.
“We saved six coins! Six! Listen!”
-
Digit
The calculator robot
Literal, helpful and proud of accuracy. Apologises for rounding.
“Saving detected. I rounded the result slightly. I apologise for the rounding.”
-
Baron
The rich, angry ogre
Loud, impatient and greedy for bargains. Bullies prices, never people.
“Full price? I did not get rich paying full price!”
Choose a humor level, from gentle to roast. They joke about prices, never about you.
What it checks for you
The homework you would do before buying, done in seconds.
-
Other stores
The same product at stores in your country, with delivery counted in the total.
-
Price history
The 90-day low and high, so you know whether today’s price is a good one.
-
Your safe-to-spend
What is left until payday once your bills and your goal are covered.
-
Cheapest split
Tell it your shopping list and it finds the cheapest way to split it across stores.

Questions
When can I get CoinKin?
We are finishing the app for iOS and Android. Leave your email at the top of this page and we will write when it is in the stores.
Is this financial advice?
No. CoinKin gives budgeting and price information only: no investment, credit, tax or legal advice. You always decide what to buy.
Do I need to connect my bank?
Never. You type or say your numbers yourself and update your balance when you like.
Which countries and stores does it cover?
It works in any country and currency. Your country sets the currency and the stores it checks, and the stores covered differ from country to country.
Are the voices real people?
No. The mascots are AI characters with synthetic voices. They joke about prices at the humor level you pick, never about you.
What will it cost?
There will be a free plan. Plus and Pro are planned at $9.99 and $19.99 a month before VAT, and new users get seven days of Plus. The stores show the final price.
Who is it for?
Adults. You must be 18 or older to create an account.
