Assign every item

Preparing names.

Preparing item entries.

Enter a unit price and optional quantity. Each line total is shared equally among the checked people.

Separate adjustments

Preparing adjustment fields.

Equal per person: each adjustment is divided equally among all listed people. By consumption: each adjustment is divided in proportion to each person's pre-discount item subtotal.

Discount percentages use the item subtotal. Tax, service-charge and tip percentages use the subtotal after discount, before other charges. Enter receipt amounts directly if its bases differ.

Use the final total you intend to pay. This comparison does not silently change your entries.

Split receipt by item, then check the final total

Keep purchases separate from payment records: this receipt splitter assigns consumption and extra charges, not who has already paid. To split receipt costs, select the actual participants for each item before adding the charges.

Shared line totals are divided in whole cents. The discounted meal, tax, service charge and tip are then allocated separately: take whole cents first and give remaining cents to the largest fractional remainders; tied remainders go to the larger pre-discount meal share, then to the earlier name. Equal discounts that exceed someone's meal share are rejected rather than making a negative share.

These are this page's allocation and rounding rules, not an industry standard. The results show every allocated charge and verify that the person totals equal the calculated bill.

Check each scanned or copied price against the printed receipt before dividing the items. Verified: 2026-10-25; spllito.com's homepage expense-entry and sharing descriptions did not spell out this printed-price comparison when reviewed.

Receipt splitting questions

Who gets a remaining cent when a shared item does not divide evenly?

The largest fractional remainder receives the next cent under this page's rule. Equal remainders for a shared item go to the earlier selected name; adjustment ties use the larger meal share before list order.

What does a red difference from the printed total mean?

The calculated bill differs from the printed total you entered. Compare item prices, quantities, discounts and charges with the receipt, and check whether the printed total already includes the selected tip; the warning shows the exact difference without changing a share.

Does a service charge automatically replace the tip?

This tool keeps the service charge and the additional tip separate. In US federal tax reporting, mandatory service charges differ from voluntary tips; enter the receipt's service charge and the additional tip you choose as separate amounts.

Verified: 2026-10-25 · Sources: irs.gov for the reporting distinction; theeventable.com for this calculation convention.

Before choosing an additional tip, check service charge vs tip: payment, wage and tax rules.
