Compared with handing over the cards

A common tip is to give your cards to someone you trust. It works. Here's an honest look at both.

Hand over the cards Steady
Normal purchases Someone else pays, or hands the card back You pay, straight away
Late night and repeat buys Need someone else, every time Wait for your morning review, or your partner
Other cards and shops Covered, if every card is handed over Not covered. Only purchases paid through Steady. Guided setup helps you add blocks elsewhere.
Who sets the rules Usually the person holding the cards You, on a good day, with your partner
Changing your mind Ask for the cards back Stricter at once. Looser after 72 hours.
When it ends When the cards come back On a date you both chose
Cost Free Free. $8 a month for the AI help.

You don't have to pick one. Steady works alongside any blocks your bank or PayPal already offers.
