Reached 25 of your own active groups? No worries, you can archive them. Archived groups don't count against this limit.
Add expenses to your group, select who paid what and we will simplify your debts by avoiding unneccessary payments between friends and you.
Group Expense with Ease service is free. Also there are no annoying ads.
Learn moreThe application runs in browser as a website. We have optimized it for both mobile and desktop use.
Always stay in a loop by receiving notifications about groups you are in. Prefer less email? Switch on a single daily summary instead of individual messages.
You can archive groups which have been settled up. Also you can whenever download your archived data.
Group Expense with Ease service has been highly inspired by the SplitWise - we love the revolutionary idea of simplified debts.
Unfortunatelly what we don't particularly love about SplitWise is their latest pressure to buy pro features. For those who don't want to use application on daily bases but only few times a year we think Group Expense with Ease might be better alternative.
Below is the comparision of SplitWise and our service features.
| splitwise free | our service | |
|---|---|---|
| groups and friends | ✅ | ✅ |
| simplified debts | ✅ | ✅ (by default) |
| essential features | ✅ | ✅ |

As you can see SplitWise offers more features while Group Expense with Ease is built with simplicity in mind. We don't offer all the blows and whistles but we focus on user experience and we built our service so it could sustain long periods without need of funding from ads.
However, if you like the service you can support us by donation:
Since we are providing this service free of charge we have built it on top of AWS serverless services so the cost is directly proportional to the number of users using the service.
In our architecture use following Amazon Web Services (AWS):

Users count is count of all users registered with the service - includes
active and non-active users.
Cost includes all environments deployed to AWS (development, staging and
production).
Donations are based on Ko-fi donations for the particular month - one time and recurring.
Yes, via split button.
You can create new expense which will be set as paid by the first user. Then you can use split button which is located next to edit button in order to divide the expense payment in half with another user.
Yes. When requesting a review the owner can confirm the review on behalf of the remaining members, so a group can be finalized without waiting for everyone to click through.
Yes. The group owner can mark any member's debt as settled up, which is handy when a payment happened offline and you just need the group to reflect it.
Yes. On the verification screen there is a resend option that sends you a fresh sign-in code.
Yes. As the group owner you receive an email when a member confirms their review, so you know when the group is ready to be locked. You can turn this off in your notification settings.
Yes. When a member marks their debt to you as settled up, we email you about it. This follows your settlement notification setting.
Yes. In your notification settings you can turn on the daily digest. Instead of an email for each event, we buffer the activity across your groups and send you one summary email per day.
The digest is off by default - until you enable it you keep receiving an immediate email for each event. The summary only includes the notification types you have left enabled. Time-sensitive emails such as your sign-in code and friend invitations are always sent immediately and are never held back for the digest.
Unfortnuatelly not. All payments must be performed off the Group Expense with Ease
However you can set up your payment information in your settings so your friends will see for instance your IBAN every time they are going to hit "Settle up" button.
Yes.
By default an expense is split equally between the members you select. When adding or editing an expense you can switch to custom shares and give each person a weight - for example 1 / 2 / 3 splits the amount into sixths. Amounts that don't divide evenly are rounded to the nearest cent and always add back up to the total.
When an amount doesn't divide evenly, the leftover cents are distributed deterministically rather than at random. We give each extra cent to the members whose exact share was rounded down the most, so the split always adds back up to the original amount.
For example, splitting €1 between 3 members gives €0.33 each, and the remaining €0.01 goes to one member by that rule.
The limit exists because of a decision made when we architected the service to be optimized for cost.
In real life you probably don't need to own more than 25 active groups at a single time.
The limit applies only to the groups you own (the ones you created). You can be a member of as many groups as you like - being added to someone else's group never counts against your limit.
You can still own more than 25 groups in total - whenever you archive a group it no longer counts against this limit.
Archived groups will be deleted after 3 months automatically.
You can download the data of an archived group at any time.
Currently you can select either € or $ currency when you are creating your group.
This currency does nothing special it is just a symbol which is shown in front of your expenses.
We've tried it without currency but it looked weird, hence you get to choose from two currency symbols.
For each group you can select your prefered currency.
Unfortunatelly there is no currency conversions and selection of currency just means that the symbol will be shown next to any money value.
Display name of each user is not cross-checked with other users hence multiple users might choose same name.
This may introduce some confusion when two users which picked the same name are in the same group. Since the display name can be changed in the settings we recommend you to ask your friends to come up with unique nicknames.
Yes. The first time you sign in we ask you to review and accept our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before you start using the app. It is a one-time step - once you accept, you go straight to your groups on future sign-ins.
We are not finished yet. Here are some things which are on our roadmap:
If you found a bug or you have some feedback for us, please do not hesitate to contact us.
For now you can use GitHub issues for that.
