Click the button. Railway provisions the finances service + Postgres + a 1 GB volume — all linked. Railway will ask you for one thing: API_TOKEN. We pre-generated one for you below — copy it, paste into Railway's prompt, then click Deploy. ~2 minutes total. Klick den Button. Railway provisioniert den finances-Service + Postgres + ein 1-GB-Volume — alles verbunden. Railway fragt dich nach einer Sache: API_TOKEN. Wir haben unten einen für dich vorgeneriert — kopieren, in Railways Prompt einfügen, dann auf Deploy klicken. ~2 Minuten. Clique no botão. A Railway provisiona o serviço finances + Postgres + um volume de 1 GB — tudo conectado. A Railway vai pedir uma coisa: API_TOKEN. Já geramos um para você abaixo — copie, cole no prompt da Railway e clique em Deploy. ~2 minutos no total.

API_TOKEN — paste this when Railway askseinfügen, wenn Railway danach fragtcole quando a Railway pedir
Copy this → click "Deploy on Railway" below → after signing in, Railway shows ONE input field labelled API_TOKEN → paste this value there → click Deploy. (Auto-generated in your browser via Web Crypto, 256 bits of entropy, never sent anywhere. Each refresh = a new one. See the visual walkthrough below if you get lost.) Diesen Wert kopieren → unten auf "Auf Railway installieren" klicken → nach Anmeldung zeigt Railway EIN Feld namens API_TOKEN → diesen Wert dort einfügen → auf Deploy klicken. (In deinem Browser via Web Crypto generiert, 256 Bit Entropie, geht nirgendwo hin. Bei Unklarheit siehe visuelle Anleitung unten.) Copie este valor → clique em "Implantar na Railway" abaixo → após o login, a Railway mostra UM campo chamado API_TOKEN → cole esse valor aí → clique em Deploy. (Gerado no seu navegador via Web Crypto, 256 bits de entropia, não vai a lugar nenhum. Cada atualização = um valor novo. Veja o passo a passo visual abaixo se ficar perdido.)

Railway reference syntax — auto-resolves to your Postgres URL. Only needed for manual setup; the template handles it automatically. Railway-Referenz-Syntax — wird zu deiner Postgres-URL aufgelöst. Nur für manuelles Setup nötig; das Template erledigt das automatisch. Sintaxe de referência da Railway — resolve automaticamente para a sua URL do Postgres.

Email reminders — optional E-Mail-Erinnerungen — optional Lembretes por e-mail — opcional

Skip this and the app works fine — overdue payments still appear in the dashboard. Set it up if you want emails delivered: payment reminders, daily briefings, monthly reports. Überspringen ist okay — überfällige Zahlungen bleiben im Dashboard sichtbar. Einrichten, falls du E-Mails möchtest: Zahlungserinnerungen, tägliche Briefings, Monatsberichte. Pode pular — pagamentos em atraso continuam aparecendo no dashboard. Configure se quiser receber e-mails: lembretes de pagamento, briefings diários e relatórios mensais.

Why your own account? Emails go from your domain (better deliverability + branding), and we never see who you're emailing or what about. Resend's free tier is 100 emails/day — plenty for personal use. Warum dein eigener Account? E-Mails gehen von deiner Domain (bessere Zustellung + Branding), und wir sehen weder Empfänger noch Inhalte. Resends Free-Tier reicht mit 100 E-Mails/Tag locker für privaten Gebrauch. Por que sua própria conta? Os e-mails saem do seu domínio (melhor entrega + branding), e não vemos para quem você envia nem o conteúdo. O plano grátis do Resend dá 100 e-mails/dia — bastante para uso pessoal.

  1. Sign up at resend.com (GitHub OAuth, 30 sec)Auf resend.com registrieren (GitHub OAuth, 30 Sek)Cadastre-se em resend.com (GitHub OAuth, 30 seg)

Prefer SMTP or your own Outlook? Set SMTP_HOST + SMTP_USER + SMTP_PASS instead — same fallback chain. Lieber SMTP oder dein eigenes Outlook? Stattdessen SMTP_HOST + SMTP_USER + SMTP_PASS setzen — gleiche Fallback-Kette. Prefere SMTP ou seu próprio Outlook? Configure SMTP_HOST + SMTP_USER + SMTP_PASS em vez disso — mesma cadeia de fallback.

Connect a bank — optional, later Bank verbinden — optional, später Conectar um banco — opcional, depois

All bank-feed integrations are optional and configurable from the Connections page. Pick the providers that match where your accounts live: Alle Bank-Anbindungen sind optional und über die Connections-Seite konfigurierbar. Wähle die Anbieter, die zu deinen Konten passen: Todas as integrações bancárias são opcionais e configuráveis pela página Connections. Escolha os provedores onde estão suas contas:

Each provider gives you their own API keys; you paste them into your Railway env vars. We've never seen them — they go from the provider straight to your tenant. Jeder Anbieter gibt dir eigene API-Keys; du fügst sie in deine Railway-Env-Vars ein. Wir bekommen sie nie zu sehen — sie gehen direkt vom Anbieter zu deiner Instanz. Cada provedor te dá suas próprias chaves de API; você as cola nas env vars da Railway. Nunca as vemos — elas vão direto do provedor para a sua instância.
