Some people skipped alcohol
Sober guests, drivers, pregnant guests, and non-drinkers should not be absorbed into a drinks tab by default.
For the non-drinker at a cocktail table
You should not have to subsidize drinks you did not order
Alcohol is where equal splits get touchy fast. EventSplit lets the group separate drinks from shared food and show a fair total without making anyone do table math.

The situation
The split is not obvious yet
What people are trying to avoid
Alcohol is where equal splits get touchy fast. EventSplit lets the group separate drinks from shared food and show a fair total without making anyone do table math.
Why equal split fails
People resent paying for cocktails they did not drink, but they also hate sounding like they are policing what everyone else ordered.
How to keep it simple
Add the receipt, assign drinks only to the drinkers, keep shared food shared, and let tax and tip follow the actual split.
Common cases
Use it when a simple equal split would feel unfair
Drinks changed the bill
A few rounds can double the check. Separating them makes the final ask easier to trust.
The table still shared food
Split appetizers and entrees however the group wants, while keeping alcohol with the people who had it.
Example
Food shared, drinks separate
The non-drinkers cover their food, and drinkers cover the drinks.

Settlement
A short list of who pays whom.
Good fit
- Dinner, birthday, party, and bachelorette bills with alcohol
- Groups with sober guests, drivers, or people on a budget
- Receipts where drinks should not be spread across everyone
Probably not the tool
- Deciding etiquette for the group
- Taking payment from each guest
- Restaurant separate-check handling
Questions
Things people usually ask before sending the link
Can alcohol be split only among drinkers?
Yes. Add drinks as their own items or assign drink line items only to the people who ordered them.
What about tax and tip on the drinks?
Receipt mode can include tax and tip so each person sees a final amount, not just item subtotals.
Can this still handle shared food?
Yes. Shared food can be assigned to everyone who ate it while drinks stay separate.
