Cashbar is a macOS menu bar app made by Karma team. Its core goal is very focused: putting your Stripe balance and day-to-day payment activity in the menu bar, so SaaS founders and indie developers can keep an eye on revenue at any time. It requires macOS 10.13+, and the page shows a last updated date of December 2019.
Based on the captured text, Cashbar’s main features include displaying your Stripe balance in the menu bar, tracking daily Stripe activity, multi-account support, clicking the icon to view more detailed balance information, dark mode, and a native macOS Catalina codebase. It emphasizes being lightweight, with an app size of around 5MB and memory usage of around 25MB. For third-party integrations, only Stripe is explicitly supported. After installation, users need to add their Stripe secret key under Manage Accounts.
The product is priced at $2/mo. No free plan, trial period, annual discount, or team plan is disclosed. Deployment is as a local macOS desktop app: it can be downloaded by searching in the Apple App Store, or by downloading a zip from Gumroad and dragging it into the Applications folder. It is not a Web SaaS dashboard, but rather a personal productivity tool built around Stripe.
On the security side, Cashbar has been Apple notarized, and sensitive data is stored locally in the encrypted macOS Keychain. Its privacy policy states that the app does not collect personal information, and that information users voluntarily provide when contacting the team is used only for feedback, troubleshooting, and similar purposes, and is not sold to third parties. Enterprise capabilities such as team collaboration, role-based permissions, audit logs, and compliance certifications are not disclosed. Developer support mainly involves using a secret key from the Stripe Developers area; Cashbar does not provide information about its own API.
Its strengths are that it is simple, inexpensive, lightweight, and highly aligned with the use case of “checking SaaS revenue at a glance.” Multi-account support is also valuable for developers running multiple Stripe projects. Its limitations are its narrow scope: it is limited to macOS and Stripe, and is not suitable for complex revenue analysis, subscription metrics, team-based finance workflows, or enterprise compliance scenarios. The page also appears to have been maintained quite some time ago, so actual availability should be checked. It is best suited for indie developers, small SaaS startup teams using Stripe, and users who want to reduce how often they open the Stripe Dashboard.
The page does not provide information about access from mainland China, payment availability, or Stripe regional support, so its China accessibility status is rated as unknown. For businesses targeting mainland China, it may be necessary to evaluate Stripe’s availability based on the place of registration and the receiving region. Alternatives include Stripe Dashboard, Baremetrics, ChartMogul, ProfitWell, and other revenue analytics tools. If the business is primarily domestic in China, local payment, collection, and analytics dashboard options should also be evaluated.
