Splitting bills used to mean awkward Venmo requests, mental math and forgotten debts. The 2026 generation of apps has erased that pain — but each app makes different trade-offs. Here are the four that matter and where each one fits.
Partly: end-to-end app with AI receipt scanning, integrated payments (7+ methods), persistent Shared Spaces, encrypted chat, multi-currency. Free tier with ads (5 scans, 5 payment links, 3 spaces / month). Premium €39.99/year for unlimited everything. Best for: groups that scan receipts, ongoing households, international travelers.
Splitwise: the original. Free expense tracking with ads and daily limits, $49.99/year for Pro (scanning + currency conversion). No in-app payments — relies on Venmo/PayPal. Best for: simple cross-platform groups that already use Venmo.
Tricount: free, ad-free, no account needed for participants. No scanning, no payments, no recurring expenses. Best for: short-lived groups, casual European users, Bunq customers.
Settle Up: pay-once apps with one-time pricing instead of subscription. Solid local-first experience, syncs via Google Drive. Best for: privacy-focused users who prefer paying once.
Our pick for 2026: if you scan receipts or want in-app payments, Partly is the most capable. If you only need a free tracker for a one-off trip, Tricount stays tough to beat.
