iCashBox vs TripKitty

Ever borrow money from a friend while out to lunch? Or trade off inviting a colleague to a cup of coffee? iCashBox is an App that makes managing your deposits and withdrawals with friends easy. No matter what kind of personal cash system you have, iCashBox helps you to keep track of the tab and shows you who owes who, and what has been bought. Because you have your iPhone with you every time, you can book payments immediately so they don't get lost. In every point of time you can see how much was deposited from the members or how much every member is receiving to be even with all other members. iCashBox makes it easy, fast and intuitive to be the boss of your own tab.

Log it. Share it. Done. The fastest way to settle group trip costs. No account, no subscription, no ads – all data stays on your device. At the end: who pays whom? With as few transfers as possible. Splitting vacation costs shouldn’t feel like accounting. TripKitty is built for the moment everyone is back from the beach and someone still needs to log dinner: tap plus, type the amount, save – done in about 4 seconds, with the keypad open the instant the sheet appears. And at the end, the app works out who pays whom, accurate to the cent: 10 mutual debts become, say, 3 simple transfers. WHAT TRIPKITTY DOES • Lightning-fast entry: a standard expense takes about 4 seconds – plus, amount, save. • Personal items on a shared receipt: one grocery run for everyone, but David’s €12.90 is his alone – the rest is split fairly, with a live preview before you save. • Receipt photos: snap the receipt with your camera or pick it from your library — it lands in the PDF appendix automatically. Optional, never required. • Per-person factors (“counts as”): a kid counts 0.5× and pays half a share everywhere – set it once, it applies to everything, even retroactively. • Per-expense weights: split the beach house by nights (3/3/3/2/1.5) with a long press – only when you need it. • Final settlement “Who pays whom?”: all debts combined into a few clear transfers – check them off as people pay up. • Accurate to the cent: the engine calculates in whole cents – €100 split three ways is 33.34 + 33.33 + 33.33. Totals always add up exactly. • Record payments: “Ben hands Anna €50 in cash” – so the settlement stays correct. • Refunds: security deposit returned, bottle deposit, cancellations – one switch handles it. • Share via WhatsApp: an interim update mid-trip or the final settlement at the end – the whole group stays in the loop. • Complete PDF: every expense, every balance, every transfer – ready to send and keep. Free. • Automatic backup to iCloud Drive plus file export and import – also free. • One currency per trip, euros or Swiss francs – made for your trip to Europe. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a trip and add everyone who’s coming – first names are enough. 2. Log expenses as you go: plus, amount, save. Payer and participants are sensibly pre-selected. 3. At the end, open the settlement: who pays whom? Share it via WhatsApp or send the PDF. PERFECT FOR A beach house with friends, ski trips, bachelor and bachelorette parties, family vacations, city trips, road trips, camping, festivals, sailing crews – anywhere a group shares expenses, from splitting the check at dinner to groceries, gas, and the house itself. HONEST PRICING Your first trip is completely free – including the PDF, the backup, everything the app can do. No trial period, no locked features in your first trip, no surprises. Only when you create a second trip does TripKitty ask for one small one-time purchase – yours forever, Family Sharing included. No subscription. Ever. By the way: only one person in the group needs the app – the one who keeps track. YOUR DATA IS YOURS TripKitty works fully offline. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking.
