You’re out to dinner with friends and the bill arrives. Cue the dreaded questions like: “Should we split the bill to make it easier? Should we only pay for what we ordered?” <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If you typically order just the side salad, you might welcome a tool that keeps these questions at bay. Alternately, if you’re the first to raise your hand to cover the entire check (and reap the credit card rewards), you may also appreciate an easy way to break down who owes you what, ensuring you’re not short-changed. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Helpfully, various credit card features and third-party apps can facilitate the tracking of shared expenses and sending or receiving payments among friends or family. These services can streamline the process of splitting bills with others, whether it’s a large restaurant tab, a group vacation, a rent or utility payment among roommates, or something else. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Some of these services may require you and those in your group to sign up. For instance, you may need to have <\/span>PayPal or Venmo<\/span> to be able to send or request money through another app. But the barrier to entry is low, and they’re typically free to use.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
