Chicago

Who doesn’t love vacation? There’s nothing better than traveling with great people to great cities like Nashville, Los Angeles, or Chicago. Coincidentally, some of the most frustrating times I’ve had with friends have come at the end of these memorable trips. It’s hard mixing friends and business; but that’s exactly what has to be done when it’s time to figure out how to square up a weekends worth of shared hotels, round-for-round bar taps, car rentals, concert tickets, party supplies, etc … Great memories shouldn’t be clouded by feelings of frustration and resentment.

Problems involving expense sharing require very delicate solutions because even before money is involved diverse personalities and backgrounds complicate group decisions and interactions. In the end, what friend doesn’t want to contribute fairly? But lets face it, that’s easier said than done. Figuring out how to share many expenses can get very complex and can be extremely inconvenient when a group waits too long to sort things out.

Condensed

SPLRG offers an appropriate solution to this problem. Simply keep track of who pays for what within the flow of your trip using our app. At the end of your trip press compute to condense any number of shared expenses into a few efficient transactions. Even better, you won’t have to try and convince your friends to download our app because we’ve designed our product to be sufficient on one device. Our solution shows a group the easiest way to square up debts and allows them to settle things outside the app using electronic payment methods or even cash.

Our app allows a group to easily document shared spending while natural communication and planning occurs. This introduces a sense of community and forces expense sharing to occur and end within the framework of your experience. With SPLRG we create an environment where friends can be just friends while still ensuring everyone pays their fair share.
