Group Trip Expense Split Calculator — frequently asked questions

How does this travel expense split calculator work?+

It totals what each traveler paid, calculates what each traveler owed for only the expenses they participated in, then nets those balances into the smallest practical payment list.

Can it handle uneven participation?+

Yes. For each hotel, fuel, grocery, taxi, activity, or other cost, check only the travelers who shared that expense. Pro also unlocks weighted shares for partial-stay guests, kids, couples, or other uneven split rules.

What does minimum payments mean?+

Instead of everyone paying everyone else for each receipt, the calculator nets every person's balance and returns a short settlement list showing who pays whom and how much.

Is my trip expense data sent to a server?+

No. Travelers, receipts, participation, shares, category totals, and settlement payments are calculated entirely in your browser.
