Frequently asked questions

Last updated: March 20, 2026

Straight answers about how Splitea works, what kind of data it uses, and what you can expect from the scanning, splitting, and syncing flow.

Does Splitea split by item or only evenly?

It can do both, but its main value is splitting by item, by person, and by unit when needed. It is not built around a flat split of the total.

Can I use a photo of a receipt I already have?

Yes. The app is designed to work with both a fresh camera capture and an existing image from your photo library.

How does it handle tax and tip?

It distributes them proportionally according to each person's consumed subtotal so the final split matches the real spend.

Can a receipt be shared?

Yes. The product supports shared receipts with authentication and cloud sync so people can collaborate on group expenses.

What data does the app store?

It may store basic sign-in identity, receipt images, structured receipt content, participants, linked contacts, and archived or synced receipts.

Does it need internet to work?

Receipt reading and syncing depend on backend and cloud services, so some features require a connection. Exact availability can vary by flow.
