Food and drinks

Split the restaurant bill by what each person ordered

Pizza for everyone, wine for two and a lemonade for the one who doesn’t drink. Divall splits every item and the tip, and tells you who owes whom.

A Food and drinks account “Cena del viernes” with 5 people: pizza for everyone, wine for Ana and Luis and 3 beers for Carlos, each with who paid for it; you’re owed $52.80 of $187.

How it works

From the table to “Paid” in three steps

No calculator or spreadsheet at the table.

  1. Add item in Divall: an $80 wine that Ana and Luis had and Luis paid for.

    Add things as you order

    Create the account with everyone at the table and add each item: who had it and who paid for it. Got the receipt? Tap Scan and we read it for you, and its items stay together under it.

  2. The dinner tip: 10%, $17, split in proportion to what each person had.

    The tip and who’s treating

    No tip, 10%, 15% or another percentage: it’s split in proportion to what each person had. If someone’s treating, they cover what their guests had.

  3. Pending balances for the dinner: Ana owes you $52.80, and Ana, Carlos and Diana owe Luis, each with its “Paid” button.

    Everyone knows what they owe

    “Close account” shows who pays whom, so you can share it before closing. When someone pays you, you confirm it with “Paid”, and the bell in the app shows what’s still pending.

An example

Why not just split it evenly

Four friends, one pizza for everyone, a bottle of wine for two and two lemonades. Ana paid the bill and they left a 20% tip.

WhoHadSubtotalTipPays
AnaPizza (¼) and wine (½)$30.50$6.10$36.60
LuisPizza (¼) and wine (½)$30.50$6.10$36.60
DianaPizza (¼) and lemonade$12.50$2.50$15.00
CarlosPizza (¼) and lemonade$12.50$2.50$15.00
Total$86.00$17.20$103.20

Split evenly, each person would pay $25.80: Diana and Carlos would put in $10.80 extra for wine they didn’t drink. With Divall, Luis pays Ana $36.60, and Diana and Carlos pay her $15.00 each.

The details at the table

What makes the bill add up

  • A fair tip

    No tip, 10%, 15% or another percentage. It’s split in proportion to what each person had.

  • Is someone treating?

    Whoever treats covers what their guests had; everyone else pays only their own.

  • Receipt photo

    Tap Scan and we read the items, prices and tip, and let you know if they add up to the total. A long receipt can be taken in parts, in up to 5 photos. 10 free readings every 30 days.

  • For people without the app

    Add anyone by name and share what they owe, or invite them with a QR code, a link or their @username.

  • No signal at the restaurant

    Divall works offline: add the dinner even without a connection.

  • Several at once, and groups

    Press and hold an item to pick several (or a whole receipt) and split them among some people or a named group, like “Wine people”. And Divall simplifies the debts so there are few payments.

FAQ

About splitting the bill

How is the tip split?

In proportion to what each person had: whoever ordered more pays more tip. Choose no tip, 10%, 15% or another percentage, and if the receipt already includes a tip, you can use it.

What if someone is treating?

In People, under “Is someone treating?”, mark who’s treating and whom. Divall adds what their guests had to their share, and everyone else pays only their own.

Does everyone need Divall?

No. Add anyone by name and share what they owe. If you want, invite them with a QR code, a link for any chat or their @username: when they join, they keep what was already assigned to them, see the account on their phone and get their share in DivMe.

Is the receipt photo free?

Yes: the Free plan includes 10 readings every 30 days (receipts, utility bills and statements) across DivMe and your accounts, and Divall Pro includes 300 a month. If you run out, you add the items yourself.

Is Food and drinks free?

Yes. On the Free plan you create up to 20 accounts every 30 days across Food and drinks, Nights out, Events and Gifts, with 2 open at a time, and join as many accounts from others as you want.
