01
Create the group before the first payment
Add everyone who may share a cost and agree on the trip currency. Members do not need to split every purchase equally; participation can change by expense.
02
Record who paid and who benefited
For each expense, record the payer, amount and participants. Keep a receipt image when the group may need to verify items or tax later.
- Equal split for shared transport or accommodation
- Custom amounts for different meal orders
- Percentage split for couples or household arrangements
- Exclude members who did not participate
03
Settle net balances, not every receipt
Paying each expense back immediately creates unnecessary transfers. A group ledger nets all payments so members can settle with fewer transactions.
04
Use Monira for the receipt and the split
Monira can scan a receipt, add it to a group or trip and keep the shared balance beside the rest of your travel spending.
Questions
What people usually ask
Should every group expense be split equally?+
No. Equal splitting is convenient, but custom shares are fairer when only some members participated or ordered different amounts.
When should a group settle up?+
Usually at the end of a short trip or on a regular schedule for a household. Netting balances reduces the number of transfers.
Can Monira handle different currencies?+
Monira supports multi-currency expense tracking and conversion for travel workflows.
