Any app suggestions for expenditure tracking for splitting travel payments? - eviltoast

I’m thinking of logging travel expenditures with a group of people, where different ones can pay bills for the group (or maybe part of the group). It would be the best if you can see how much the group or a person spent, how much you need to pay whom back at the end of a trip.

Bonus if it is FOSS.

Bonus as well if it supports different currencies but if you can log just numerical values and create multiple tracks of record, it is also fine.

Thanks!

    I use splitwise with my friends but I did zero research and just joined because they did. It works well and is super flexible when it comes to splitting expenses. I doubt it’s Foss.

      Thanks! I installed Splitwise and it seems to require a subscription to run? I think I’ll just be using it for a trip or maybe two so subscription for it is a bit too much.

        Huh, that’s weird. Are certain features behind a pay wall? I definitely don’t have a paid subscription and I’m using it right now to organize a trip. I use it like less than once a year for the last 5 years or so.

        I assumed their business model was using their in-app money transfer feature and like taking a cut or hoping people forget to cash out or something. But you don’t even need to do that, you can sync Venmo or even mark transactions as paid in cash

        Edit Oh, I see. I don’t think it’s required

      +1 for splitwise. It works exactly like you want it to.
