Split by the line, not by the head

Everyone pays for
what they ordered.

Dividing the bill evenly punishes whoever had the soup. Assign each item to the people who shared it, and the tax and tip follow along in proportion, down to the cent.

The receipt beside this text runs on the same engine as the app — tap a name on any line to try it.

How it works
  1. 01

    Set up the group

    Name the people sharing the bills. They are just names — nobody else needs an account.

  2. 02

    Add the receipt

    Photograph it and let the scanner read the line items, paste JSON, or type them in.

  3. 03

    Tick who shared what

    Each item goes to the people who had it. Balances update as you go, and always sum to zero.

One trip, three nights out

By Sunday, nobody's chasing a Venmo.

Ana covered dinner Friday. Ben got Saturday's seafood. Cleo picked up Sunday's rooftop round — cocktails for two, since Ana doesn't drink. Papertab priced every line as it happened, so the only thing left by Monday is who transfers what.
