Banana Split — Split group expenses and see who owes what, without the headache. "Don't split your expenses — Banana Split them!" IN SHORT Banana Split automatically works out who owes what after a trip, a shared flat or a night out. You enter the expenses, the app does the maths and tells you exactly who pays back whom — instantly. WHO IT'S FOR For friends going on a trip or a weekend away, flatmates sharing rent and groceries, couples running a shared budget, and any group where people front money for each other. WHAT YOU'LL GET • Clear accounts at the end of the event — no more "wait, who paid for dinner?" • The smallest number of paybacks to settle the whole group • A record of every expense: who paid, for whom, how much • Trips abroad with no currency hassle (40+ currencies) HOW IT WORKS 1) Create an event and add the participants. 2) Add each expense: pick who paid and who it's for. 3) Open the balances: the app shows who owes what to whom and generates the paybacks. KEY FEATURES • Flexible splitting — equally, exact amounts, percentages or shares. • Multi-currency — 40+ currencies converted automatically within a single event. • Optimised balances — the fewest transactions to get everyone back to zero. • Custom categories and payment methods. • Receipt photo, notes and timestamp on every expense. • Recurring expenses (weekly, fortnightly, monthly, yearly) for shared-flat bills. • Share the event by link — everyone adds their expenses in real time. • Export the accounts by email. WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR Built first for trips with friends, Banana Split also fits the everyday life of shared flats and couples. Most groups use it for an equal split, but everything stays adjustable the moment one expense stands out. FAQ Q: What is Banana Split, in one line? A: An app that splits a group's expenses and automatically works out who pays back whom. Q: How long does it take to settle up?
