How to customize a low balance alert

How to edit your existing balance alert or create a new one in the Rocket Money mobile app, and why these alerts are only available on mobile.

Written by Sabrina

Rocket Money automatically sets a balance alert to notify you whenever the balance in your checking account drops below $200. This can help avoid potential overdraft fees or having a charge get declined if the balance in your account is too low. However, you may want to set your balance alert higher or lower than the automatic $200 threshold.

To customize your balance alerts from the mobile app:

  1. Tap on the Settings (⚙️) icon in the upper left corner of the Dashboard.

  2. Select Notifications & Alerts

  3. Tap on an existing alert to edit it or select + Balance Alert to make a new alert

Please note: Customizing your balance alerts is available exclusively on our mobile app - this feature is not available to complete the above instructions on our website, Rocketmoney.com.
