How to split trip expenses fairly

Equal split

Each expense is divided by the number of participants. If Sam paid $90 dinner for three people, each person's share is $30; Alex and Jordan owe Sam $30 each.

Custom split

Some costs are not equal—e.g. a boat tour where one person skipped. Use custom shares that sum to 1.0.

Get to one verdict

Reckoner minimizes transfers: instead of everyone paying everyone, you get a short list—Alex owes Sam $42.
