Welcome to Splitser
In order to guarantee your proper use of our service Splitser, we have drafted a set of terms (“Terms”). Using Splitser means that you agree to these Terms. We ask that you read them carefully to make sure you are aware of your rights and obligations. We are entitled to change these Terms at any time. The latest Terms can be viewed at any time on the website and in the application and will be brought to your attention by means of a hyperlink. You will always be informed of any changes. By continuing to use Splitser, you are agreeing to the new change.
1. Our service
Splitser is a service provided by Splitser BV. Splitser allows you to settle joint expenses easily and transparently. The Splitser service is accessible via the website splitser.com and the Splitser app. After creating an account, you can make a list and add members to it. All members can add expenses and indicate for each expense who should share in the costs. All members are able to look at the balance on the list. The balance shows what each member is due or owed. The amount that is due or owed by each person is the difference between a person’s total expenses and his or her total costs. If you settle the list, the system calculates exactly who should pay what to whom. The system makes sure that the number of transactions to be carried out within the group is as low as possible. All members receive a convenient overview by email that lists the settlements and all of the expenses within the group.
The app and the website explain how the Splitser service works in further detail.
