Split the bill with friends in seconds. SplitPal is a bill splitter and shared-expense tracker for dinners, trips, roommates and anything you share: scan the receipt, split expenses, settle up. Snap a photo of the bill — the AI receipt scanner reads every item, tax and tip automatically. Assign items to people in a couple of taps and SplitPal does all the math: who spent what, who owes whom. Why SplitPal: • Scan receipts — every item, tax and tip extracted automatically, no typing • Friends don't need the app — they join your group from a link in any browser, no sign-up • Settle with one tap — payment links open Venmo, PayPal, Cash App, Revolut or any UPI app, plus copyable bank details for everything else • Three ways to split: evenly, custom shares, or item by item from the receipt • Every currency — pay in euros, yen or pesos on the same trip, settle in dollars • Clear balances — transparent debt breakdowns, simplified to the fewest transfers • Multiple payers per expense, settle in parts or all at once • Link couples — one balance for two, fewer transfers • Group history — every action is visible to everyone • Spreadsheet export, and your phone and browser stay in sync • Free, no ads, no sign-up required How it works: 1. Create a group and add your people. 2. Add expenses: dinner, hotel, cabs, groceries. Split evenly, by share, or by receipt item. 3. SplitPal calculates everything — taxes and tips are distributed proportionally, so nobody over- or under-pays. 4. Settle up and mark it paid — the whole group sees it. Road trip with friends, rent and utilities with roommates, office lunches, group vacations, weddings — SplitPal does the math so you don't have to. The only app you need for bill splitting, expense sharing, IOU tracking and settling group costs. SplitPal Pro (optional) unlocks higher AI receipt-scan limits with a monthly or yearly subscription — or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

Splitting the bill, finally fixed. One person pays the whole check. Everyone else scans the receipt, picks what they ordered, and Depler pulls their exact share from their bank automatically. Money goes straight back to whoever paid. No Venmo requests. No group chat reminders. No "I'll get you next time." HOW IT WORKS Whoever's paying opens a tab in Depler. Share a code or let people scan a QR. Everyone joins on their phone, claims their items, and confirms what they owe. Tax and tip split by each person's share. Payments go straight from their bank to yours. Done before you leave the restaurant. FOR THE PERSON WHO PAID Open a tab, share a code, get paid back. You can see exactly what each person owes and the money lands in your bank account automatically. No more fronting cash and hoping people remember. FOR EVERYONE ELSE Join from a code or a QR scan. Tap what you ordered. That's it. Depler charges your linked bank account the right amount. No math, no guessing. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH Split by item, not by headcount. No more paying for someone else's steak because "it was easier to split evenly." Bank account connections run through Stripe. Depler never sees your login credentials. Your friends don't need an account before the first split. They join from a code, confirm what they owe, and pay. BUILT FOR Group dinners. Bar tabs. Trips and Airbnbs. Gas money. Roommate expenses. Any time you're the one holding the card for the group. Stop being the friend who's always owed money.
