About

Tallyd Split

Features
Read full description

Tallyd splits shared expenses the fair way — right down to each item on the receipt. Whether it's a weekend trip, a shared flat, a group dinner, or an office pool, Tallyd keeps every rupee accounted for and tells you exactly who owes whom. No more awkward reminders, messy spreadsheets, or "I'll pay you back later." Scan the receipt. Split by item. This is where Tallyd is different. Snap a photo of a paper bill and Tallyd reads it on your device — your receipt image never leaves your phone. It reconstructs the line items, quantities, and prices, even from tightly printed Item / Qty / Rate / Amount columns and Indian GST (CGST/SGST) rows. Then you simply tap who had what: assign each dish or item to the people who shared it, and Tallyd splits the tax and tip in proportion to what each person actually ordered. Nobody overpays for a starter they never touched. Split any expense, your way Not every bill needs the full treatment. Add an expense in seconds and split it equally, by exact amounts, by shares, or by percentage. Tallyd does the math instantly, so the group always sees a clear, up-to-date balance. Settle up in one tap with UPI When it's time to pay back, Tallyd works out the fewest payments needed to clear everyone's debts, then opens UPI directly or shows a scan-to-pay QR — no copying account numbers, no hopping between five apps. Record a settlement and everyone's ledger updates on the spot. Groups for every occasion Create a group for your trip, your flat, your team, or your friends. Each group keeps its own expenses, balances, members, and stats in one place, so shared money never gets tangled with your personal spending. Always know where the money went A live activity feed shows every expense, edit, and settlement as it happens. Category breakdowns and per-member stats show exactly what the group spent on — and who paid for it. Why people choose Tallyd • Receipt scanning with on-device OCR and true item-level splitting — tax and tip shared fairly • Four split modes: equal, exact amounts, shares, and percentage • Real-time balances — who owes you, who you owe, at a glance • UPI settle-up with scan-to-pay QR and minimal-payment calculation • Per-group expenses, balances, members, and spending stats • Live activity feed of everything that happens in a group • Multi-currency support and full light & dark themes • Private by design — receipt images are processed on your device, not uploaded Tallyd is for roommates, travellers, couples, teammates, and anyone who shares costs. Create a group, log an expense — or just scan the bill — and let Tallyd handle the rest. Download Tallyd and never chase a payment again.
