Recurring value, not a pile of locked calculators.

Gold sits on top of the free MFA foundation and focuses on continuity: watching, remembering, reviewing and helping you use what you already have.

Gold

Gold Alerts

Free My MFA

Rate and market watches are evaluated in-app while you use My MFA; private Deal Watches remember verified offer terms.

MFA Gold

A source-backed monitoring layer for saved rate, market, Deal, Savings APY and economic-release watches plus supported card-perk reminders, organized in Gold Center so the things you chose to watch stay together.

Why it belongs in Gold: The monitoring model is built once and can keep expanding as MFA adds more source-backed watch types.

Gold

My weekly money brief

Free My MFA

Current context and saved-plan signals inside My MFA.

MFA Gold

A deterministic Gold Center brief, limited to one per Eastern calendar week, summarizing your active monitoring setup, watched economic releases coming in the next 7 days, unread Gold Center items and whether a saved My MFA baseline is available. It uses counts and status signals rather than copying balances, thresholds or private labels into the brief.

Why it belongs in Gold: The useful parts of MFA come back together in one recurring review instead of requiring several separate checks.

Gold

Scenario + baseline history

Free My MFA

Current saved baseline and saved scenarios.

MFA Gold

A private Gold timeline of meaningful My MFA baseline changes and newly saved scenario versions. Baseline history keeps selected high-level before/after metrics already present in My MFA; scenario history stores the MFA tool, private version sequence, view type, save time and pathname while stripping query-string inputs and private labels.

Why it belongs in Gold: History becomes more valuable the longer you use MFA.

Gold

Quarterly Financial Health Check

Free My MFA

Money Plan, calculators and current My MFA context remain available anytime.

MFA Gold

A polished quarterly review that scores the saved baseline, highlights changes, surfaces prioritized questions and produces a premium MFA PDF. Deterministic recommendations remain clearly labeled.

Why it belongs in Gold: It creates a recurring review of the whole picture rather than another isolated calculator.

Gold

Choose your alert types

Free My MFA

Core rate/market thresholds, private Deal Watches, APY Watches and economic-release follows stay useful inside My MFA.

MFA Gold

Separate Gold preferences for Rates, Markets, Deals, Card perks, source-verified Savings APY Watches and recurring Economic Release Watches let you decide which categories deserve attention in Gold Center.

Why it belongs in Gold: Members should control what deserves attention instead of receiving one undifferentiated stream.

Gold

Card Wallet Max

Free My MFA

Save cards, set point/perk values and see the best card for each spending category.

MFA Gold

Supported dated perk reminders, optional anniversary-based annual-fee review prompts, unused-value signals and deeper multi-card optimization designed around the cards you already carry. Card Wallet prepares reminder dates only from explicit issuer cadence/expiry language or dates you enter, so Gold Center can surface supported review points without guessing.

Why it belongs in Gold: Rewards value is easy to lose through unused credits, duplicate annual fees and unnecessary complexity.

Gold

Gold Community identity + product priority

Free My MFA

Read, post, reply, react and vote in the MFA Community.

MFA Gold

A tasteful MFA GOLD badge, Gold profile treatment and a clearly labeled priority signal on Product Enhancement ideas.

Why it belongs in Gold: Members can help shape the product faster without buying more influence over financial discussion.

Gold

Annual MFA Review Pack

Free My MFA

Export My MFA data and individual calculator results.

MFA Gold

A private annual review that assembles the current saved baseline, recorded Gold baseline changes, saved-scenario activity, quarterly Health Check history, active watches and deterministic questions worth revisiting, then generates a polished MFA PDF on demand without storing a second copy of the financial profile.

Why it belongs in Gold: A tangible recurring artifact makes the saved history useful without pretending MFA has a complete bank ledger or individualized financial-advice mandate.

MFA Store benefits

$20 store credit each paid membership year plus 15% off regular-price MFA merchandise. The discount does not stack with already-discounted pricing or other promotions.

Optional spouse/partner sharing for selected plans, goals and scenarios with clear permission boundaries.

Advanced stress tests

Multi-variable what-if packs: income change, rate shock, home purchase, retirement timing, education funding and cash-flow stress testing.

Gold design rules
Core calculators, Guides and the basic My MFA workspace remain useful without a paid plan.
Gold charges for ongoing service and deeper persistence—not for hiding basic financial literacy behind a paywall.
Every Gold feature should earn its place through monitoring, notifications, deeper history, collaboration or heavier analysis.
Gold never implies fiduciary, investment-advisory, tax, legal or banking services.
Community Gold badges and Product Enhancement priority signal membership—not that a paid member's financial opinion is more correct.

MFA Gold is an educational software membership. It does not provide fiduciary, investment-advisory, tax, legal, banking or credit-repair services.
