Think for a second. Who still owes you money? The trip you paid for. The lunch you covered. Some of it is in chats. Some is in screenshots. Some is just in your head. A few weeks later, you're searching through it all to work out who still owes what. CreditCat keeps those IOUs in one place. Record who, what for, how much, and when. See what they've paid and what's still owed, whenever you need to check. Every person gets a cat. While the money is outstanding, their cat waits by an empty bowl. As the days go by, it gets grayer, hungrier, and a little more miserable. Once you're fully paid back, it finally gets a little fish. KEEP TRACK AS THE MONEY COMES BACK • Got the full amount for an item? Check it off. Paid back a little? Record what you received and see what's left • Covering dinner or a group order? Add several people and items at once, and split amounts evenly without retyping everything • Find someone by name or relationship when the list gets long • Look back at paid-off items and every payment you've recorded, whenever you want to double-check HARD TO ASK? SEND THE CAT Keep the records just for yourself, or send someone their cat when you want to bring it up. They get a short message and a link. They don't need the app: the link opens a page showing what they still owe and a cat waiting to be fed. When it's hard to find the words, let the cat say it. CreditCat never contacts anyone on its own. You decide whether to share and when. It doesn't process payments or provide financial advice. Sign in with Apple, or try it as a guest.
