The spend summary gives you an honest picture of what your subscriptions actually cost. SubLedger adds up every active subscription and presents a monthly total and a yearly estimate so you can budget with confidence — not guesswork.

​
How SubLedger calculates your totals

SubLedger converts every subscription to a monthly cost and sums them together to produce your monthly total.
  • Monthly billing — the amount you pay each month is counted directly.
  • Annual billing — the annual charge is divided by 12 to give a monthly equivalent.
Your yearly estimate is then derived from your monthly total, giving you a projected full-year cost based on your current subscriptions.
The yearly estimate assumes your current subscriptions remain unchanged. If you cancel or add a subscription mid-year, your actual annual spend will differ from the estimate.

​
How totals update

Your spend totals update immediately whenever you:
  • Add a subscription — the new amount is included in both totals right away.
  • Edit a subscription — changing the price, billing cycle, or status recalculates your totals instantly.
  • Remove a subscription — the cost is removed from your totals as soon as you delete the entry.
You never need to refresh or recalculate manually. The numbers you see on the dashboard always reflect your current subscription list.

​
Employer reimbursements and shared costs

If you mark subscriptions for employer reimbursement or split costs with family members, SubLedger adjusts your totals to show what you’re personally responsible for — not the full sticker price.
Marking a subscription as reimbursable means your spend summary reflects your actual out-of-pocket cost. See employer reimbursement for setup instructions.

​
What the spend summary does not include

  • One-time purchases
  • Subscriptions you’ve removed from SubLedger
  • Paused subscriptions you’ve marked as inactive
Only active subscriptions count toward your totals. This keeps your summary accurate and free of noise.
