Chipp is the fastest way to split bills, scan receipts, and get paid back. Send an expense by chat, voice note, or photo and Chipp does the math, tracks who owes who, and settles everyone up with one swipe. SPLIT BILLS BY CHAT, VOICE OR PHOTO Type it, say it, or snap it. Dinner, rent, tickets, groceries: Chipp turns any message into a tracked expense and splits it fairly in seconds. Equal, unequal, by shares or by item. SCAN RECEIPTS, PAY ONLY FOR WHAT YOU HAD Scan the bill, then just say who had what. Chipp reads every line, splits tax and tip, and shares a link so friends can claim their items and pay you back, even without the app. GROUPS FOR TRIPS, ROOMMATES AND COUPLES Make a room for every crew: feed, chat, and balances in one place, with Chipp AI right in the thread.
