Debt Snowball Pro App Giveaway (iPhone & iPod)

If you have been a fan of Enemy of Debt for anytime at all, then you know I became debt free by using the debt snowball method. I didn’t have an iPhone, iPod Touch, or an iPad when getting out of debt, but if I did, I would of definitely loved being able to track my progress using this App.

Thanks to Matthew King, today I will be giving away Five Debt Snowball Pro Apps to help you manage and track your debt elimination progress with ease.

There is much controversy in the financial world about which technique should be used when paying off your debts using the debt snowball method. You can organize and pay off your debts according to smallest balance, highest interest rate, and even by paying off the debt with the smallest minimum payment first. I of course, believe that achieving the faster, small victories is the key to keeping you motivated so we paid off our debt by placing all of our debt on a list from smallest balance due to largest balance due.

What I love about this App, is that it gives you the option to choose which technique works best for you or your math oriented brain. I say that in love, but must point out, that getting out of debt isn’t always about math, it’s about intensity, motivation, and determination. You can do math all day long, but if you have none of those things going for you then your debt elimination struggle will be more difficult, if it’s not a complete failure.

With that said, I still believe in choices and for some people, different techniques work better for them than they do for others. Hooray for choices! I think the most important choice being made at this point is the one that says YOU WANT TO ELIMINATE YOUR DEBT. How you do it is up to you, as long as you do it, am I right?

Check out what the Debt Snowball Pro App can do for you, and if you have an iPhone, an iPod Touch, or even an iPad, be sure to enter this giveaway by following the directions listed at the bottom of this post.

2. Go to the options/settings tab (figure 2 below) and choose your payoff method and initial snowball. The initial snowball is the money you are initially willing to apply toward your total debt.

    This is an excellent App! One of the most important keys to success when trying to get out of debt is ‘Concentration’ on the goal.

    The Debt Snowball is a goal. Having the information readily available to look at may keep more people motivated towards attaining their goal of becoming debt free.

  2. Carl Sampson says:

    Awesome app!

  3. Mike says:

    Paying highest interest rate is my preference

  4. leslie says:

    I definitely went backwards. Smaller, but quicker successes was the mental push I needed to keep plowing through my debt!

  5. Josh Levitt says:

    Cool app! Thanks for developing it.

  6. gina says:

    We have started with small successes, so paying smallest to biggest. We have paid off $7,798.26 since January. It definitely works for us, gives us motivation just to see that number climb and know we have made it through several emergencies, that we did NOT finance. woohoo!!! thank you for ideas and inspiration!!

  7. Beckey & Jeff says:

    We have definitely done the smallest balance first but I think once we get the smaller cards/debts out of the way, we will switch to highest interest.

    I want the free app! <3

  8. TDoubleU says:

    Get that debt off that has the highest interest, baby! That is your cost of borrowing, regardless of where that dollar of debt is sitting. I would love the iPhone app!

  9. Rena says:

    Paying highest interest rate.

  10. Gary says:

    this app should give no excuse for not knowing how powerful this concept really is. Definitely pays to get momentum going by killing the smallest first and then attacking the next. Intensity!

  11. Brian R says:

    Highest interest

  12. Beckey & Jeff says:

    Thanks for the app! Already using it.
