Split any check in about a minute โ no math, no group chat, no awkward reminders. SCAN, DON'T TYPE Point your camera at the receipt. TipChip reads the items, prices, tax, and tip right on your phone โ nothing is uploaded anywhere to do it. Bad angle or a blurry shot? Fix any line with two taps before you move on. EVERYONE PICKS THEIR OWN TIP This is the one thing every other bill-splitting app gets wrong: they force the whole table onto a single tip percentage. TipChip doesn't. One person tips 22%, another tips 18%, and nobody has to explain why in the group chat. Quick presets (18/20/22%) or a custom amount, per person, every time. ASSIGN ITEMS IN SECONDS One page per person: tap what they had, then move on to the next. Shared appetizer? Everyone who had a bite taps it on their own page, and TipChip splits that line evenly among just them. SETTLE UP, YOUR WAY When everyone's done, TipChip shows exactly who owes what โ broken down by items, tax, and their own tip. Copy any person's share, or share it straight to whatever app you already pay each other with. Or send a clean summary card as an image. TIPCHIP NEVER TOUCHES YOUR MONEY No account to create, no balance to hold, no fees. TipChip works out the split; sending it is yours to do, in the app you already use โ your card and bank details never pass through TipChip at all. WORKS OFFLINE The camera, the math, and the split all happen on your phone. No signal at the table? No problem โ TipChip only needs a connection when you're ready to share. PAST CHECKS Every settled check is saved automatically so you can look back at what a night out actually cost โ no extra "save" button, no extra step. TipChip is built for the moment the check hits the table: fast enough that nobody's phone is out for more than a minute, and fair enough that nobody's stuck footing someone else's tip.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TipChip at none against BillSplit's 5. TipChip also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). BillSplit's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
