Built from the same question you had.

We built Fireball to make the path to financial freedom feel clear, personal and possible.

Why Fireball exists

“Where did all our money go?”

A simple question became a bigger one: what would it take to make money support the life we wanted?

The question

Payday used to be our favourite day of the month. We had stable incomes and sensible plans—yet somehow, it still felt like we were living payday to payday.

The discovery

As the future of work changed, we started thinking seriously about security, time and choice. That led us to FIRE: Financial Independence, Retire Early.

The frustration

The idea was inspiring. Getting started was not. Most money tools felt complex, technical and built for somewhere else. Staying organised became another job.

The decision

So we started building Fireball: a private, transparent way to understand your money and turn long-term freedom into clear, everyday decisions.

Meet the people building Fireball.

We’re a small, independent team building the money tool we wanted for ourselves—clear, private and made for life in Aotearoa.

Ourvalues

Trust first

Your financial life is deeply personal. We build privacy, security and transparency into every decision—your data is never sold, and you stay in control of how it is used.

Simplicity

Money is complicated enough. Fireball turns your accounts, spending and long-term goals into a clear view of where you are, what matters now and what to do next.

Empowerment

There is no single right way to reach financial freedom. Fireball adapts to your spending, priorities and FIRE style, giving you useful context without judgement or pressure.
