Spliit

Spliit is a complimentary, open-source web application for dividing expenses, created as a privacy-conscious substitute for Splitwise. It manages the entire process of group shared costs, from noting who made payments and how expenses are allocated, to determining current debts among members. Requiring no compulsory account registration for users, offering no premium features, and being ad-free, Spliit offers an easy solution for any group wishing to monitor shared expenditures without entrusting their financial details to an external service.

Typical Applications

Roommates utilize Spliit to monitor rent payments, utility charges, grocery shopping, and collective household acquisitions — benefiting from automated balance computations that display each individual's financial standing at any given moment. Social circles on vacations or short getaways record transportation, lodging, and dining expenses as they occur, then finalize payments effortlessly at the conclusion, bypassing the need for manual spreadsheet work. Partners managing shared expenditures establish a private group to oversee joint subscriptions, housing costs, and optional spending, with a continuous balance that eliminates the necessity for frequent bank transfers. Associations and smaller entities employ Spliit to handle repayments for members who cover initial costs for the collective. Distributed teams dividing software license fees or shared workspace expenses leverage Spliit to uphold a clear record of contributions made and outstanding amounts.

Core Functionalities

• Participants require no account: Access to groups is granted through a shareable link — members can instantly add and review expenses without needing to register or provide an email
• Automated settlement computation: Account balances are calculated following each expense, with Spliit proposing the fewest transfers necessary to reconcile the group's finances
• Adaptable expense division: Costs can be split evenly, by precise figures, percentages, or customized proportions to account for varying actual usage
• Receipt digitization: Utilize your device's camera to capture a receipt, and Spliit will automatically extract the total, thereby minimizing manual data input
• Expense categorization and search: Label expenses and sort historical data by category, the person who paid, or keywords to swiftly review any transaction
• Attachment of images: Directly link photographs of receipts to expense entries for record-keeping and resolving disagreements
• Tracking of repayments: Document partial or complete reimbursements and update financial standings instantaneously
• Progressive Web Application: Can be installed on iOS and Android device home screens and operates without an internet connection, providing an experience akin to a native application

Benefits of deploying Spliit on Hostinger VPS

Hosting Spliit yourself on a Hostinger Virtual Private Server ensures that your group's financial information — detailing who paid, for what purpose, and at what time — remains within your own managed infrastructure. Unlike Splitwise and comparable services that indefinitely store transaction records to guide product development, a self-managed Spliit installation operates without such conditions. The application combines a streamlined Next.js user interface with a PostgreSQL database, both performing effectively on an economical VPS package. Durable volume storage guarantees that expense records persist through container updates, and Hostinger's one-click deployment establishes a fully operational, HTTPS-secured instance within minutes — eliminating the need to modify configuration files or manually handle DNS, leaving only a ready-to-use shareable group link.
