Irregular income planning

Plan around when money arrives — even when it does not arrive on schedule.

CashGapRadar uses dated income and major payments to show short-term cash timing. It is designed for uncertain schedules without requiring a bank feed or daily expense tracking.

Variable timing

Irregular income is a timing problem before it is an averaging problem.

Freelance invoices, commissions, hourly work, contract payments, and side income can arrive on uneven dates. A monthly average may be useful for planning, but it cannot tell you whether a bill lands before the next confirmed payment.

CashGapRadar therefore works from dated income entries. Future income can remain unconfirmed until you know enough to trust the date.

Example
  1. Sep 3Client payment confirmed
  2. Sep 12Rent due
  3. Sep 18Commission expected, not confirmed

A forecast can distinguish what is known from what is merely expected instead of silently pretending every month is identical.

Useful for

Income patterns that do not fit one fixed payday.

Freelancers

Invoice dates and client payment timing.

Contractors

Project payments that arrive in uneven intervals.

Commission income

Base pay plus variable future amounts.

Mixed income

Salary, side work, benefits, or household income on different dates.

Practical rule

Do not make the forecast more certain than the income really is.

Use confirmed dates as authoritative. Keep uncertain income visible as something to review rather than using a monthly average as if it were guaranteed cash.
