Transfer between accounts and the fee

A transfer moves money between your own accounts — for example, from a card to cash. It is neither income nor an expense, so it does not distort your statistics.

Make a transfer

In the transaction form choose the Transfer type, then set:

• From account — where the money leaves.
• To account — where it arrives.
• Amount — how much you move.

If the bank charged a fee for the transfer, fill in the Fee field. The fee is recorded as a separate expense, so the moved amount stays clean while the cost is still tracked.

Good to know

Both accounts must use the same currency — a transfer between different currencies is a separate case. Because a transfer only relocates money you already have, it leaves your income and expense totals untouched and simply keeps each account's balance correct.
