Dopamine Card

The internet is designed to make you spend money. Dopamine Card is your speed bump.

WHAT IT DOES
When you're on a shopping site, a small button appears. Click it, enter the price, and "charge" the item to your Dopamine Card. You get the satisfaction of the purchase — the click, the confirmation, the little hit of dopamine — without actually buying anything.

Your running total tracks every dollar you didn't spend.

HOW IT WORKS
- Shows up automatically on shopping sites
- Enter the price (or let it auto-detect)
- See how many hours of work that purchase would cost you
- Hit "Charge It" and get a celebration screen
- Watch your savings grow

FEATURES
- Hours-of-work calculator — set your hourly wage, see the real cost
- Goal tracking — saving for something specific? Track your progress
- Chill mode — sits quietly in the corner of the page. There when you need it, out of the way when you don't.
- Nudge mode — floats near the checkout button. A friendly tap on the shoulder before you click "buy."
- Chaos mode — parks itself right on top of the buy button. Wiggles at you. Makes you look it in the eye before you can purchase. For those who need maximum friction.
- Sleep mode — take a break when you need to
- Dark mode — easy on the eyes
- No account required — everything stays on your device

WHY IT WORKS
Impulse buying isn't a willpower problem. It's a dopamine problem. Your brain wants the rush of buying, not the thing itself. Dopamine Card gives you the rush without the regret.

PRIVACY
No ads. No tracking. No data collection. No account. Everything is stored locally on your device. We never see what you almost bought.

Free forever. For people who are done buying stuff they don't need.
