Built for a country where almost nobody's money is in one currency

Paid in dirhams. Saving somewhere else.

Around nine in ten people in the UAE are expatriates. Your salary is in AED, your savings goal may be in rupees, pesos or pounds, and your family's costs are in a third currency again. NetWorth+ keeps all of it in one net worth figure without ever asking for a bank login.

Figures are from public sources and are indicative. NetWorth+ does not move money and is not a remittance service.

The dirham is pegged. Your savings are not.

A fixed rate on one side, a moving one on the other

Because the dirham is pegged to the dollar, an AED balance converted to USD barely moves. Everything else does. If you are saving for a house in Kochi, a plot in Lahore or school fees in Manila, the number that matters is moving every single day, and it has nothing to do with how much you saved this month.

  • A goal keeps the currency of what it is for. A house priced in rupees has a rupee target. Converting it into dirhams would make the figure move daily for reasons that have nothing to do with your saving.
  • Past spending is frozen at its own date. Last March's trip home cost what it cost. It does not silently rewrite itself when the rate moves.
  • Balances convert at today's rate, because that is what they are worth today, stamped with the date the rate is from, since central banks do not publish at weekends.
  • Move country later and switch back. Changing your reporting currency re-derives every row at its own date, so AED → INR → AED lands exactly where it started.

One month, three currencies

AEDSalary, Dubai 18,000.00
AEDRent & living 9,400.00
INRSent home 1,80,000.00
PHPFamily support 24,000.00

Each row keeps its own currency. The net worth figure converts them at today's rate; the history keeps the rate of the day each one happened.

What it reads

The forms your bank actually prints

CurrencyWritten in alerts asDecimals
AED · UAE Dirham Dhs · Dhs. · Dh · AED 2 · fils
USD · US Dollar US$ · USD 2 · cents
INR · Indian Rupee Rs · Rs. · INR · 2 · paise
PKR · Pakistani Rupee Rs · PKR · 2 · paisa
PHP · Philippine Peso PHP 2 · sentimo
GBP · Pound Sterling GBP 2 · pence

These are the exact strings the parser matches, because they are how banks actually print an amount, not the script symbol, which alerts rarely use.

Why it fits here

Four things that matter in the UAE

Alerts arrive by SMS, and it reads them

UAE banks and card issuers send transaction alerts from alphanumeric sender IDs. NetWorth+ accepts those, skips personal numbers before reading anything, and identifies which of your accounts a message belongs to from the account names you created, not from a fixed list of banks that would need constant updating.

Shared flats and shared bills

Split rent, DEWA and the weekly shop with flatmates. The group settles in one currency; what left your account is worked out separately, because two people paying the same bill from cards in two currencies genuinely spent two different amounts.

A card used on holiday still counts

A charge in another currency is imported and flagged with a warning badge rather than silently booked at face value; approving “USD 45.20” into a dirham ledger would otherwise record 45.20 dirhams.

Goals in the currency of the thing

Save towards a property, a wedding or a car in the currency it is actually priced in, funded from dirham accounts. The waterfall converts as each goal draws, using one rate in both directions so nothing drifts.

Questions

Good to know

Does NetWorth+ work with UAE banks?
It does not depend on a list of supported banks. It never connects to a bank at all. If your bank sends you an SMS alert with an amount in it (and UAE banks and card issuers generally do), the parser keys off the currency marker plus a direction word, then matches the message to whichever of your accounts fits. Adding your accounts with the names you know them by is what makes matching work.
Will it read Arabic-language alerts?
The currency markers it matches are the Latin forms banks print in alerts (Dhs, Dh, AED) rather than the script symbol, which alerts rarely use. If your bank sends alerts entirely in Arabic script, capture may not recognise them, and you can add those transactions by hand or by scanning the receipt. You can also set a custom display symbol for any currency where the canonical glyph is not the legible one.
Can it send money home?
No. NetWorth+ is a tracking tool. It does not move, hold or transfer money and is not a remittance service, an exchange house or a payment provider. What it does is record the transfer you made elsewhere, and it asks what actually arrived, rather than deriving it from a published rate, because your provider's rate after spread and fees is on your receipt and nowhere else. That way both balances are right.
I report in dirhams now but may move. Is that a dead end?
No. Switching your reporting currency re-derives every foreign row from the rate on that row's own date rather than converting today's figure, which is what makes it reversible with no drift. You are told how many rows converted and how many could not, and snapshots (which are bare totals with no breakdown) are flagged as the one approximation before you confirm, not after.
