The real job

A fair bill split needs less ceremony

What you need to do

Group dinners feel unfair when one person orders light and someone else orders oysters, steak, and drinks. EventSplit gives the table a fairer way to track who owes what.

What usually breaks

The repeated complaint is social pressure: asking not to split evenly makes people feel cheap, even when the equal split is obviously unfair.

How EventSplit helps

EventSplit keeps the math separate from the argument. Add the bill, split exceptions, and show the result.

Good moments to use it

Use it when equal split would be fast but wrong

Some people did not drink

Alcohol is one of the biggest sources of resentment in equal dinner splits. Track it separately.

Shared apps were not shared equally

If a few people ordered and ate most of the extras, the split should not pretend everyone consumed the same thing.

The table wants fewer side payments

The final settlement can be simpler than every person paying every other person.

Example

The bill without the bad feeling

People can see what is shared and what is not.

Settlement

A short list of who pays whom.

Good fit

  • Group dinners where one person paid the table bill
  • Meals with shared and not-shared items
  • Birthdays where the guest of honor is covered by others

Probably not the tool

  • Restaurant POS payments
  • Scanning every item automatically
  • Replacing a server's separate checks

Questions

Things people usually ask before sending the link

Can this split alcohol separately?

Yes. Add alcohol as its own expense or adjust the split for the main bill.

Can we cover the birthday person?

Yes. Leave them out of the expenses they should not pay for, or adjust those splits manually.

Is this better than asking for separate checks?

Separate checks are great when they work. EventSplit helps when one person already paid or the bill includes shared items.

Quick start

Start with the number of people going.

EventSplit creates the shared page first. Names and expenses can come after the link is open.
