THE SIMPLE WAY TO SHARE EVENT COSTS FAIRLY Planning a wedding? Family vacation? Conference booth? Group trip? The Equalizer makes splitting expenses simple, transparent, and fair - no spreadsheets, no confusion, no awkward money conversations. WHAT MAKES THE EQUALIZER DIFFERENT Most expense apps just split bills. The Equalizer goes further with a unique Treasury system that lets generous friends, family, or sponsors contribute extra to offset costs for everyone. It's perfect for events where some people want to help more than others. HOW IT WORKS 1. CREATE YOUR EVENT Set up your event and add participants in seconds. 2. CHOOSE WHO SHARES COSTS Mark which members are splitting costs equally (Contributing Members) and which just need reimbursement for expenses they covered. 3. TRACK EVERY EXPENSE Record who paid for what as expenses happen. Mark whether each expense should be reimbursed or not (like personal purchases or optional add-ons). 4. BUILD THE TREASURY Accept donations from anyone who wants to contribute extra. These donations offset costs for everyone sharing the load. Donors can be anonymous or publicly acknowledged - perfect for wedding gifts, generous relatives, or event sponsors. 5. SETTLE UP INSTANTLY View exactly who should contribute to the Treasury and who should be reimbursed from it. No math, no confusion, just fair splits.
