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. Add expenses as you go and Chipp keeps a running tally of who owes whom. GET PAID BACK WITHOUT ASKING TWICE Smart nudges remind friends for you. Settle several people at once and watch balances hit zero in a single swipe. PAY THE WAY YOUR CREW PAYS Settle over Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, PayPal, UPI, Pix, PayNow and more. Chipp opens the right app pre-filled and records the payment. Or pay in-app with your Chipp balance and let friends cash out to their bank. MONEY POOLS FOR ANYTHING Collect for a gift, a trip, or rent. Set a goal, share one link, and anyone can chip in. Watch the pool fill up in real time. ALL YOUR MONEY, IN ONE CHAT Securely link your banks and cards, then ask Chipp anything: this month's spending, rising subscriptions, upcoming bills, or where your money went. Clear answers with beautiful charts, instantly. TAP ANY TRANSACTION TO SPLIT See a card charge you shared? Tap it to split with friends or add it to a group. No retyping amounts, ever.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chipp at none against Spending Tracker's 4. Chipp also leads on rating (4.1 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (18 vs 3). Spending Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
