Roommate Expense Tracker — Split Rent & Bills Fairly

Splitting rent and bills doesn't have to be your second job. FairShare automates the calculations so you can focus on living — completely free, no ads.

Apartment Life Simplified

Features built for roommates sharing rent, utilities, and groceries in India.

🏡

Recurring Bills

Set up rent and utilities in any currency — INR (₹), USD, EUR — and FairShare logs them automatically every month. No more "did you add the electricity bill?" messages.

🛒

Split Grocery Bills Fairly

Photograph your supermarket receipt and our AI instantly extracts every item and price. Assign items to the roommates who actually use them — so the person who bought oat milk doesn't subsidise everyone else.

📊

Monthly Spending Insights

See exactly where your shared money goes — rent, utilities, groceries, or fun — with visual breakdowns updated in real time across all devices.

UPI One-Tap Settlement

When it's time to settle up, FairShare generates deep links for GPay, PhonePe, Paytm, and BHIM. Your roommate taps once and the transfer is done — no bank details, no awkward reminders.

🔄

Debt Simplification

Four roommates, a dozen transactions — FairShare collapses complex IOUs into the minimum number of payments needed, so nobody has to chase multiple people for small amounts.

How to Split Rent with Roommates Using FairShare

Set up your shared apartment finances in under five minutes.

  1. Create a group — Open FairShare, tap "New Group", name it something like "Flat 4B", and invite your roommates via phone number or shareable link.
  2. Add rent as a recurring expense — Enter the monthly rent amount in INR, choose "Split Equally" or set custom percentages if rooms are different sizes, and set it to repeat every month. FairShare does the maths automatically on the 1st.
  3. Add utilities as they arrive — Got the electricity bill? Photograph it with AI Receipt Scanner or type the total and split it in seconds. Same for gas, internet, and water.
  4. Settle via UPI — At month end, check who owes what on the dashboard. Tap "Settle" and FairShare opens GPay or PhonePe with the exact amount pre-filled. No back-and-forth needed.
  5. Review monthly insights — See your apartment's spending broken down by category. Spot if utilities are creeping up or if grocery costs need a conversation.
