How does it decide who pays whom?

It adds up what each person paid and what they owe, then matches the people who are owed money with the people who owe it, using the fewest payments possible to clear every balance.

Can I split an expense unevenly?

Yes. By default an expense splits equally among the people you pick, but you can set custom amounts or shares when one person owes more or less.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign up and no login. Everything runs in your browser, and your group and expenses are saved on this device only.

Does it handle different currencies?

You can pick a currency symbol for the whole group. It does not convert between currencies, so log each group in a single currency.

Settle up

The shortest set of payments that clears every balance.

When a group shares costs, a trip, a shared house, a group gift, the money gets tangled fast. One person books the hotel, another covers dinner, a third buys the tickets, and everyone loses track of who is up and who is down. Working out the payback by hand means a page of subtraction and usually an argument.

This splitter does the arithmetic. Add the people, log each expense and who paid, and it works out every balance and the shortest list of payments that clears them. There is no sign up and nothing is uploaded. Your list stays in your browser on this device.
