Equal
Everyone pays the same share. Good for a meal or a taxi.
Split expenses
The trip is over. Settle it in two payments, not ten.
Everyone adds what they paid. CashBooklet works out who owes whom and the fewest payments that square the group. For trips, dinners, flats and hostel rooms.

Four ways to split
Fair is not always equal. Pick the way that fits.
Percent
40 / 30 / 30, for a bigger room or a bigger appetite. Set it once as the group's default.
Shares
2 shares for a couple, 1 for each single person. The amounts follow.
Exact
Each person's own amount, when the bill says who had what.
Groups that never end
A flat, every month. Without the spreadsheet.
- Paid by one person, by several people, or from the group's Pool.
- Recurring group bills, such as rent, on a set day each month.
- A month statement, then close the month to lock it. Reopen it if needed.
- Members can be renamed, marked as left, or removed. Anyone can leave.

Questions
Do my friends need CashBooklet to be in a group?
No. Add them by name. If they want to follow the group from their own account, send them an invite link.
How does Settle everything work?
It works out who should pay whom so the whole group is square in the fewest payments, instead of everyone paying everyone.
What is the Pool?
Money the group puts in up front. Later expenses can be paid from the Pool instead of by one person.
Can a group run every month, like a flat?
Yes. Each month has a statement, and you can close a month to lock its dates. Recurring group bills, such as rent, can be added once.
Does it work offline?
Group splits need a connection, because everyone in the group shares the same record.
