How to track Old Hickory Credit Union transactions automatically

Old Hickory Credit Union already texts you every time money moves. PennyWise reads those messages on your phone and builds your spending record from them — no manual entry, no bank login, nothing leaves the device.

How it works

  1. Install PennyWise and grant SMS permission. That permission is the whole product — it is how the app sees your Old Hickory Credit Union alerts.
  2. PennyWise scans the Old Hickory Credit Union messages already on your phone and back-fills your transaction history in seconds.
  3. Every new Old Hickory Credit Union alert is picked up as it arrives and categorised automatically. Budgets and spending trends update on their own.

What PennyWise reads from your Old Hickory Credit Union messages

Everything above is extracted by an on-device parser written specifically for Old Hickory Credit Union's message formats. You can see it run on your own message, without installing anything: open the parser tool and paste in one of your Old Hickory Credit Union messages.

Why not just use a bank-login app?

Apps that aggregate accounts ask for your net-banking or account credentials and hold your transaction history on their servers. PennyWise asks for neither. It has no account system, makes no network calls to read your money, and its full source is published under AGPL-3.0 so the claim is checkable rather than promised.
