Tired of Forwarding Credit Card Alerts? Meet SMS Delivery: The Best App for Couples

Do you and your spouse share finances, but only one of you receives the bank SMS alerts?

If you are the primary cardholder, you probably know the drill: every time you swipe your card, you have to copy the text and send it to your partner via WhatsApp or iMessage. Or worse, your partner has to ask, Hey, what was this $50 charge for?

I was facing this exact problem. We use one main credit card to maximize rewards, but it made tracking our monthly budget a nightmare for my spouse. That is why I started using SMS Delivery. It has completely automated our expense sharing in under a minute.


1. The 1-Minute Solution to Financial Transparency

The best thing about SMS Delivery is how incredibly simple it is. You do not need to be a tech genius or write complex rules.

Once you install the app, you just look at your recent messages and tap the one you want to forward. The app automatically creates a rule for that sender. No manual typing, no headache. You can set it up while waiting for your coffee.






2. Smart Filtering: Only Share What Matters

You probably do not want to forward every single text message to your partner. SMS Delivery allows you to filter messages by both the sender and specific keywords.

For example, I set it up so that only messages from my bank containing the word Approved or Purchase get forwarded. This way, my spouse gets the real-time spending alerts, but doesn't get spammed with my personal texts or bank marketing ads. It is precise and keeps your partner's inbox clean.


3. Privacy First: No Backend, No Servers

When it comes to financial data, privacy is the biggest concern. Most automation apps send your data to a cloud server, which can feel risky.

SMS Delivery is different. It has no backend server. Everything—the reading, the filtering, and the forwarding—happens locally on your phone. Your data never leaves your device except to be sent as an SMS to your trusted recipient. It is the safest way to manage sensitive notifications.


4. Zero Subscription Fees: The Ad-Credit Model

I love that this isn't another monthly subscription eating into our budget. The app uses a very fair reward-based system.

By watching a quick 30-second ad, you get 100 delivery credits. For a typical couple, one or two ads a week is enough to cover every single transaction alert for the entire month. It is a small price to pay for a tool that saves so much time and prevents so many arguments!


Conclusion: Better Communication, Better Budgeting

Sharing a credit card shouldn't mean a lack of transparency. With SMS Delivery, both of you stay in the loop in real-time. We have noticed that we stay much closer to our monthly budget because we both know exactly how much has been spent at any given moment.

If you want to stop the manual copy-pasting and start managing your joint expenses like a pro, give SMS Delivery a try.
