Origin plans and prices

Origin's pricing page doesn't load: it returned a 404 on November 8, 2026, and the home page lists no price. The figures below are from Origin's own blog posts, read October 27, 2026. They are the company's words, not a pricing table.^[2][3] Wherever a price isn't published we leave it blank.

Plan	Monthly	Yearly	A month, paid yearly	What it is
First year promotion^[2][3]	—	$1	$0.08	"$1 for the first year." Per Origin's blog.
Annual after year one^[2]	—	$99	$8.25	"$99/year", a flat annual fee. Partner access and tax filing carry no add-on.

The blog says the $99 a year is flat, with no add-on for partner access or tax filing.^[2] Human sessions with a CFP professional are $119 each.^[2]

Trial and free plan

Origin's blog says it offers no free trial, only the first-year price: "Try Origin for $1 for your first year." Whether a card is needed was not stated on the pages opened.^[3] No free plan is described on the pages opened. The App Store listing is free to download, and 2026 reviewers say the app is unusable without a subscription.^[5][6] Several 2026 App Store reviewers say they were billed a year later or after cancelling.^[6] That is what some reviewers say, not a rate.

What Origin costs for two

"Origin offers partner access so you can manage your finances together at no additional cost." One partner invites the other by email and each connects their own accounts.^[2][4] So a couple pays one subscription: $99 a year after the first year.

Where Wonderful fits

We make Wonderful, so weigh this accordingly. It is $14.99 a month or $99 a year for both partners, where each person connects their own bank and chooses what the other sees. It has no free plan after a free week or a $1 first month, runs in the browser with no iPhone or Android app yet, and gives no investment advice. If you want investing, tax filing and an AI advisor in one app, Origin does more.
