How to get started with Livra

Minimum steps to have Livra usable in under 10 minutes.

Updated · 20 May 2026

The idea is to go incremental. You don’t need to leave Excel on day one; two or three steps already start giving you value.

1. Create your account

Download the app on iOS or Android and create an account with your email. We send you a confirmation email; click to activate.

2. Add your first property

Follow Add your first property. If you have several, start with the one you know best — that way you fill in the details quickly.

3. Choose the mode

Each property has a mode: My home, Rental or Both. Learn when to use each in The three modes.

4. Register a contract and a utility

Start with your mortgage or your tenancy agreement. Follow Register a contract. For utilities, Add a utility.

5. Check the cash flow

Once you have a couple of movements, open the Finance section. Learn how to read it in Understanding cash flow.

6. Enable two-factor authentication

Before entering real sensitive data, enable MFA: Enable two-factor authentication. Takes a minute and dramatically reduces the risk if someone guesses your password.
