Stop smoking

Your addiction, converted
into time and money.

Cashtray counts what you stop spending. And we will give it to you straight: no waffle, no soppy encouragement, just the exact figures.

The app is not finished yet. I went for a smoke break. Leave your email and I will tell you when it is.

Nobody ever sent you the bill. We will.

1 hour 40 a day, every day, for twenty years. End to end, a year and five months without ever putting it down.

And as a bonus: about ten years off your life expectancy.

The counter

What you did not
burn.

One date, and the counter starts. It climbs while you sleep, to the penny, and never stops to congratulate you. The figure is never rounded: rounding is already a small lie.

Example: 40 days at €13.00 a pack.

Your plans

That money ends up
somewhere.

You name what you want and what it costs. What you no longer burn pays for it, in order, and the surplus rolls to the next one. Twenty-two packs not bought is a set of headphones already.

Savings only. Cashtray buys nothing on your behalf.

Your body

Ten milestones,
none invented.

From the exact hour you stopped. Nothing is rounded to look neat, nothing is promised earlier than it arrives, and nothing is added to frighten you.

Public-health milestones, used as published. Cashtray promises no medical outcome and replaces no professional.

Cashtray is a web app: you will open it, install it to your home screen if you like, and it will work offline. The rest arrives in that order.

If a thousand people
gave it a go.

Cashtray has only just shipped. We do not have a thousand users and we are not going to pretend we do, having promised not to lie to you. This is only the arithmetic, if a thousand people stopped and held out for a year.

Straight talk

We are on your side.
We are not your mum.

We will not be nice, we will be blunt. There are already apps that pat you on the back every morning; this one tells you what it was costing, without softening the figures.

What we will not do

No inspirational quote, no soppy encouragement at seven in the morning, no medal for getting out of bed. Your milestones will be marked. With figures, not confetti.

What we will do

Give you the exact figure, even when it is unpleasant. What tobacco took from you, in money and in hours, and what you have just taken back.

When you slip

We will not go easy there either: we put the figure back under your nose and restart the counter. Like a good mate who wants the best for you, the one who wakes you up, not the one who judges you. Tobacco was counting on your silence.

And if you smoke

Slipped up?
We will not pretend otherwise.

Cashtray removes the price, resets the streak and puts the amount under your nose. No red, no badge lost, no lecture: the figure stings quite enough on its own. A pack bought back is nearly two days of savings wiped. Tobacco did not wait to do the maths; neither do we.
