How is WazPal different from my bank or budgeting app?
Your bank can show transactions that passed through your account.
WazPal helps you keep the context around everyday life too: cash spending, money sent for a reason, things you still need to pay, receipts, reminders, plans and activity you want to remember.
WazPal does not connect to your bank account.
Do I have to manually update WazPal like a spreadsheet?
No. Tell WazPal as things happen by text, voice, receipt, screenshot or WhatsApp.
WazPal organizes the activity so you can ask for summaries, Excel or PDF later.
Can WazPal remind me about things I need to do?
Yes. You can tell WazPal what you need to remember and when, and it can remind you later.
Planned or expected money stays separate from money that actually moved, so a payment reminder never changes your totals.
- Remind me to pay the electricity bill on Friday.
- Peter will pay me $100 on Sunday.
Can I ask WazPal what happened before?
Yes. You can ask about saved activity, spending, payments, people, plans, reminders or a specific period.
WazPal can also explain where a saved item came from when the original source is available.
- What did I spend last week?
- Show me everything with John.
- Where did this one come from?
Can I use WazPal for personal life and business?
Yes. You can create separate workspaces for Personal, Business, Family, or Project and switch between them without mixing your records.
The same WazPal account can manage multiple workspaces, so your personal spending and your business activity stay in separate, organized places.
Can I talk to WazPal in Pidgin?
Yes. You can type or speak in Pidgin, English, French or mixed language.
WazPal responds in the language you use when it is detected reliably. If something is not clear, it asks a short question instead of guessing.

- Wetin I spend this week?
- How much people still owe me?
Do I have to stop using Excel?
No. WazPal can work alongside the way you already keep records.
You can bring spreadsheet records into WazPal, keep telling it what happens as you go, and ask for an Excel spreadsheet when you need your information again.
WazPal does not currently promise continuous synchronization with your existing workbook.
Can WazPal turn my WhatsApp activity into an Excel spreadsheet?
Yes. Once WazPal has organized what you told it, you can ask for a report in Excel format.
The spreadsheet is generated from the structured information saved in WazPal.

Can WazPal create a PDF report?
Yes. You can ask WazPal to prepare a PDF report from the information it has saved.

Can I use WazPal for personal expenses?
Yes. A Personal workspace can help you remember everyday spending and money received.

Can my family use WazPal?
Yes. A Family workspace can help organize household spending, bills, purchases, receipts, contributions and other family money activity.

Later you can ask for household totals, activity or a report.

- John contributed $200 for the family event.
Can I use WazPal for my business?
Yes. A Business workspace is designed for people who want an easier way to capture what happens during the workday without manually reconstructing everything later.
You can tell WazPal about payments, expenses, purchases, receipts, money customers owe, estimates and other supported business activity.
A Business workspace stays separate from your Personal, Family, or Project workspaces, and you can switch between them anytime.
- Who still owes me?
- Show me everything with John.
- What did the business spend this week?
Can I use WazPal for a project?
Yes. A Project workspace can help keep purchases, payments, people, receipts, estimates and other project activity together.

Later you can ask how much you have spent on the project, or to see everything that happened on it.
- Bought 10 bags of cement for 100,000 CFA.
- Paid the carpenter 40,000 CFA.
How do I switch workspaces?
In the WazPal app, use the workspace switcher.
On WhatsApp, you can type or say:
Switch workspace
You can also say things like:
Switch to Personal
Switch to Business
WazPal will show your available workspaces so you can choose one or create a new workspace.
If the reusable WazPal workspace menu is showing in the conversation, you can also tap Workspaces instead of typing.
- Switch workspace
- Switch to Personal
- Switch to Business
What if I already use a notebook?
You do not need to stop using it.
WazPal is useful when you do not want to wait until later to reconstruct everything from memory. Tell WazPal what happened when it happens, then ask for the week's activity or a report when you need it.
Can WazPal keep receipts with my activity?
Yes. When supported proof such as a receipt or image is attached to an activity, WazPal can keep that proof connected to the record so it is easier to find later.
Can I ask WazPal what I spent?
Yes. WazPal can answer retrieval questions from the information you have saved.
Different currencies are kept separate rather than silently mixed together.
- What did I spend today?
- Total spent this week.
- How much have I spent?
Can I ask about one person?
Yes. When information is connected to a person, you can ask WazPal to show what happened with that person.
This helps bring together relevant saved activity instead of searching through separate messages and records manually.
- Show me everything with John.
Does WazPal support different currencies?
Yes. WazPal supports multiple currencies and can suggest a default based on your country. You can still use a different currency when needed.
WazPal keeps currencies separate and does not silently convert or combine them.
Is WazPal accounting software?
No. WazPal helps you remember what happened, what you spent, what is coming up and what you still need to do. It is a memory and organization layer for everyday activity, not a replacement for accounting software.
It is not a bank, an accountant, a payment processor, a financial advisor or a tax service, and it does not connect to your bank account. You should review important records before relying on them for financial or tax decisions.
Does WazPal automatically understand every message?
WazPal is designed to understand natural everyday language, including short and conversational messages, but AI can make mistakes.
When money is being recorded, WazPal may ask you to confirm or clarify something before saving it. The goal is to ask only for information that is genuinely needed.
Is my WazPal information private?
WazPal is designed around private workspaces and controlled access to your information.
For details about how information is handled, stored and processed, read the WazPal Privacy Policy.
