Questions people ask

How are the fewest payments found?
By trying every way the group could split into parts that settle among themselves, for up to 14 people; past that the page says they may not be the fewest.
Can people pay back only who paid for them?
Yes. Turn on Only pay back who paid for you; it can take more payments.
How do I share the bill with the group?
Copy a link: the names and expenses ride after the #, which no server sees, so the bill opens for whoever you send it to.
