Question 1

Do I need an account?

Accepted Answer

No. Groups are created with a shareable link, and members are identified per-group with magic links. We never require email or a password.

Question 2

How do I create my first group?

Accepted Answer

Go to /groups/new, pick a name and default currency, and share the link with whoever's splitting expenses with you. The whole flow takes about 30 seconds.

Question 3

How does multi-currency work?

Accepted Answer

Each group has a default currency. You can record an expense in any currency - at write-time we snapshot the FX rate so balances stay stable even when rates move later.

Question 4

What currencies are supported?

Accepted Answer

All ISO-4217 currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, AUD, BRL, MXN, INR, ZAR, and the rest). Pick whatever the situation needs.

Question 5

How is the settlement plan calculated?

Accepted Answer

We use a greedy debt-minimisation algorithm: repeatedly settle the largest debtor against the largest creditor. The result is a payment plan with at most n−1 transfers (where n is the number of members with non-zero balances). It's also called 'simplified debts' in some apps.

Question 6

How do I settle up?

Accepted Answer

Click Settle Up on the group page. We show the optimal payment plan. Pay via cash, bank transfer, Stripe, PayPal.me, Venmo, Revolut, or Wise - then mark the transfer paid in-app.

Question 7

Can I split by item from a restaurant receipt?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Snap the receipt, our AI extracts line items, and you assign each line to who ordered it. Tax and tip are split proportionally. It's the cleanest way to handle mixed-order restaurant bills.

Question 8

What's the difference between equal, exact, share, and percent splits?

Accepted Answer

Equal divides the total evenly across selected members. Exact lets you type each person's amount. Shares lets you assign weights (e.g., 2 to one person, 1 to others). Percent splits by percentage. Pick whichever matches the situation.

Question 9

How do recurring expenses work?

Accepted Answer

Set up rent, utilities, or subscriptions on a schedule (weekly, monthly, custom RRULE). The expense gets created automatically on schedule and notifies the group. You can edit or skip individual occurrences.

Question 10

Does it work offline?

Accepted Answer

Reading does. The PWA caches the last group you viewed for offline access. Adding new expenses still requires a connection so balances stay consistent across members.

Question 11

What happens to my data?

Accepted Answer

Group data lives in our managed Postgres in the EU (Ireland). We never sell data. You can delete a group permanently from its settings page, which cascades to all expenses, members, and shares.

Question 12

Is EvenRound open source?

Accepted Answer

Open core is on the roadmap - we plan to publish the settlement engine, the FX engine, and the schemas under MIT. The hosted product remains a service. We'll announce on the blog when the first repo is public.
