SimpliSplit – Scan, Split, and Settle Splitting the bill shouldn't be the hardest part of dinner. Skip the separate checks, the calculator, and the awkward "so who owes what?" SimpliSplit turns one receipt into everyone's share in under a minute. HOW IT WORKS • Snap the receipt – Take a photo or pick one from your library. SimpliSplit reads every item, plus the tax and tip. • Fix anything with a tap – Edit names and prices, add missing items, combine sides into a main dish, or split a shared plate across people. Adjust tax, tip, and discounts any time. • Pick who's in – Choose friends straight from your contacts. People you split with often show up first. • Tap who had what – Give each item to the person who ordered it. Tax, tip, and discounts are shared out fairly, based on what each person ordered. • Get paid – Send a Venmo request to everyone in one tap, text each person their own itemized receipt, or show a QR code they can scan to pay you on the spot. No account, no sign-up. Your splits and contacts stay on are used only to read the items on them.
