Account and Pricing

SheetsFinance accounts and connected environments

A SheetsFinance account is separate from your Google account and separate from your Excel environment.

• Your SheetsFinance account is where your subscription, billing, trials, and dashboard live.

• Your Google account is the Google identity currently using SheetsFinance inside Google Sheets.

• Your Excel environment is connected separately through the Excel add-in.

In many cases these will share the same email address, but they do not have to.

What a Connection ID does

Each SheetsFinance account includes a Connection ID. This is the ID you use to connect Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel to your SheetsFinance account.

• You can copy your Connection ID from your Account Dashboard.

• You can install SheetsFinance under any Google account, then enter your Connection ID to connect it.

• If you reconnect the same SheetsFinance account under a different Google account in Google Sheets, that new connection replaces the previous Google Sheets connection.

• If your Connection ID is ever compromised, you can rotate it from your account dashboard and reconnect your environments using the new ID.

Google Sheets: two ways to get started

Google Sheets supports both in-app registration and Connection ID connecting.

Option 1 - Register directly from Google Sheets

If Google Sheets is your first touchpoint, you can create your SheetsFinance account from inside the add-on.

1. Install SheetsFinance in Google Sheets

2. Open Extensions > SheetsFinance > Account

3. Choose the registration flow inside the Account modal

4. Complete your account details and select your free trial(s)

5. Once finished, SheetsFinance will roll straight into connected access in that Google Sheets environment

This is the fastest path for new users who start inside Google Sheets.

Option 2 - Sign up on the website first, then connect with your Connection ID

If you create your SheetsFinance account on the website first, the next step is to connect Google Sheets with your Connection ID.

1. Install SheetsFinance in Google Sheets

2. Open Extensions > SheetsFinance > Account

3. Copy your Connection ID from your Account Dashboard

4. Paste the Connection ID into the Google Sheets Account modal

5. Click Connect

If you try to use SheetsFinance before connecting, your sheet may show this message in the cell:

Connect to SheetsFinance from the menu: Extensions > SheetsFinance > Account

That message is expected for web-created accounts and simply means Google Sheets still needs to be linked to your SheetsFinance account.

Microsoft Excel: Connection ID only

Excel currently does not support in-app registration.

To use SheetsFinance in Excel:

1. Create your SheetsFinance account on the website

2. Install the SheetsFinance Excel add-in

3. Open the account/connect view inside Excel

4. Copy your Connection ID from your Account Dashboard

5. Paste the Connection ID into Excel and connect

If you are using both Google Sheets and Excel, both environments connect back to the same SheetsFinance account.

Free trials and when they start

SheetsFinance offers 15-day free trials without requiring payment details.

How the start of your trial works depends on how you begin:

• Google Sheets in-app registration: your trial starts as part of the registration flow you complete inside Google Sheets.

• Website-first signup: you create your SheetsFinance account on the website first, then connect Google Sheets or Excel using your Connection ID.

If you begin on the website and later connect a spreadsheet environment, that environment links back to the same SheetsFinance account and its trial/subscription state.

Switching Google accounts in Google Sheets

Because your SheetsFinance account is separate from your Google account, you are free to install SheetsFinance under a different Google account and reconnect it using your Connection ID.

This is useful if:

• you changed Google accounts

• you are moving between personal and work Google accounts

• you signed up on the website first and now want to connect an existing SheetsFinance account to a different Google login

When you reconnect Google Sheets with the same Connection ID under another Google account, the latest Google Sheets connection becomes the active one for that SheetsFinance account.
