Groceries and mugs on a shared kitchen table

A shared home. Clear accounts.

Illustration generated for Spliz

Rent comes from one account, groceries from another. Keep track of what each person covered.

Each roommate adds what they paid for the home in one shared group. Agree on a rent split, share household bills and keep personal purchases out. Spliz adds up each person鈥檚 share and what they鈥檝e already paid, so you can check the month together.

How to do it

  1. A sofa and armchairs arranged around a living-room coffee table

    Create the household group

    Keep a group for shared household costs. Housemates join in the app through the link, using a name or nickname.

  2. Crates of produce beneath the canopy of a farmers market stall

    Rent by shares when the rooms differ, groceries equally, the subscription at its exact amount.

  3. A handwritten grocery list on a folded sheet of paper

    You see what you owe or what you are owed, in the Spliz currency.

  4. Someone checks a phone at an outdoor caf茅 table

    Pay back your way

Common questions

How do we split a receipt with personal purchases?

Leave personal items out, then split each shared purchase among the roommates concerned. If two people share dinner, the third does not need to share that expense.

Should an absent roommate still share bills?

Agree separately on meals and ongoing bills. Exclude groceries they do not share if that is your agreement; check the billing period and contracts before changing fixed-cost shares. An absence does not automatically remove contractual obligations.

Do we need a joint account?

No. Everyone keeps their own money. Pay back in cash, by bank transfer or with your payment app, then record the repayment in Spliz.

Can we pay the landlord through Spliz?

No. Pay the landlord outside Spliz, then record the rent and its shares. Roommates also repay each other outside the app before recording the repayment.
