group.finance helps you manage expenses among your friends (or acquaintances), making it simple to keep track of day-to-day expenses or purchases on group trips. |
When you pay for something that other people participated in, you add it as
an expense.
- Only the person who paid should add the expense.
- When adding an expense, you can either split it with your
acquaintances, or split it among a group that you're a member of.
- To add other users as acquaintances, search for them in the search
bar at the top of the page.
|
When someone else adds an expense that you're involved in, you will need to
acknowledge (or "ack" it) to confirm that you agree with it.
- This does not mean that you've paid the other person back for
it yet; only that you agree that it's legitimate.
- When someone else adds an expense that you're involved in (or sends
you a message), you'll get an email notification. You can control the
frequency of email notifications from the
my profile page.
|
Create a group to make it easier to organize expenses for a group
trip or with roommates.
- You can see your groups or create new groups on the
my groups page.
|
You can see your balances with other people on the
my tabs page.
- Click on a person there to see your full tab with them.
|
When you want to settle up with someone, go to their tab and click "resolve
tab" to pay them back. If the other user has Venmo or Zelle, you'll see
that there.
- After you've settled up with another user, add a resolution on
their group.finance tab to record that. Once the other person
receives the payment, they can acknowledge (or "ack") the resolution
to confirm that they received it.
- If the other user uses Venmo, there will be a button under "resolve
tab" on their tab to pay them back through Venmo and automatically
record a resolution in group.finance.
- This just opens the Venmo
app with their username and amount owed pre-filled; group.finance
itself has no access to your Venmo account.
- You can set how you want others to pay you back (Venmo or Zelle) on
the my profile page.
