Moneydance 2023 and later versions are "universal" which means they run natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. These versions will continue to work when macOS 28 arrives.

According to Apple's plans, macOS 28, will no longer be able to run Moneydance 2022 and older versions. If you upgrade to macOS 28 and are still using Moneydance 2022 or older, you'll need to upgrade Moneydance to version 2023 or newer.

MacOS 28 is planned to be released in September 2027.

When upgrading Moneydance, you can redeem a significant discount by entering your existing license key into the "Upgrading" field on this page. You'll be taken to the purchase page for the current version of Moneydance, with the discount already applied.
