Visualize your budget at a glance. See exactly where your money goes with a clean, customizable pie chart.
To make a budget pie chart, list your spending categories with the amount in each (housing, food, transport, savings and so on), enter them as label and value pairs, and let the chart turn them into percentages of the total. Keep it to about six categories and group the small ones into Other, so each slice is big enough to read.
A budget pie chart shows you the big picture of your finances in one visual. Instead of scanning a spreadsheet of numbers, you can immediately see which categories consume the largest share of your income or organizational funds.
Track where your monthly income goes across categories like rent, groceries, transportation, savings, and entertainment to identify areas where you can adjust spending.
Show team leads and executives how a project budget or department allocation is split across labor, materials, software, and other cost centers.
Communicate to donors and board members how grant money or donations are distributed across programs, administration, and fundraising.
Financial advisors and planners can use pie charts to show clients their recommended asset allocation or spending plan in an accessible format.
A budget tends to grow categories, so it helps to know what readable looks like. In this site's download log, 78.4% of the charts that recorded a slice count had six slices or fewer, and the median chart has 4 slices.
Charts with 8 or more slices were 16.5% of downloads. If your budget has that many lines, merge the small ones into Other or switch the label to name only.
