Link-based room access
A room is created from a link, and the link is the shared entry point for the group. People open it from a chat, type a name, and start contributing without creating accounts.
Overview
Peanut Split is a link-based expense splitter for groups that want to share costs without making everyone create an account. A room is created, the link is passed around, and each person can open the same room, choose a name, and add expenses.
The product is designed around small, temporary groups such as trips, dinners, and shared bills. It supports multiple currencies, several ways to split expenses, and a simple settlement view that shows who pays whom at the end.
What Peanut Split does
Multi-currency expense splitting
The app supports 162 room currencies and automatic conversion for 156 currencies, so a group can track spending in one room even when people pay in different currencies.
Multiple split methods
Expenses can be entered as equal shares, percentages, exact amounts, shares, or selected people, which covers both simple and uneven splits.
Settlement summary
Balances are reconciled to the cent and the app suggests a short payment plan showing who pays whom, which helps groups close out a room cleanly.
Live updates and offline syncing
New expenses appear for everyone immediately, and entries can sync once the device is back online if someone is temporarily offline.
Device-friendly access
The room can be reopened on the same device, and it can also be added to the home screen so it opens more like an app.
When people use Peanut Split
Travel groups
One person can start a room for a trip, paste the link into the group chat, and let everyone add what they paid as the trip unfolds.
Shared household bills
Housemates can record shared costs in one room and settle the month’s balances without passing a spreadsheet around.
Restaurants and one-off dinners
A dinner group can split the check after the meal using exact amounts, equal shares, or selected people, depending on how the bill was divided.
Multi-currency groups
If some people paid in different currencies, the room can still keep one balance view and convert expenses automatically within the supported currency set.
Migrating from Splitwise
Someone coming from Splitwise can bring a group’s history across by exporting the group as a spreadsheet and importing it into Split.
Pros and Cons

Cons

- The pricing page returned a not-found page in the collected evidence, so the public site text is clearer about free use than about any separate pricing structure.
