Why shared households lose track
Rent is usually agreed once. Everything else is not: the electricity bill one person pays, the groceries someone picked up, the internet, the cleaning supplies, the takeaway when everyone was too tired to cook. Each item is small. Together they add up, and without a record, memory decides who owes what.
What Squadly does for a house
- Log a shared expense in seconds and choose who it is split between
- Four ways to split: evenly, by percentage, by shares or by exact amounts
- Amounts add up to the cent, with no lost pennies
- A running balance for each person, updated as expenses are added
- A full history of every expense in the squad
- Tasks, events and trip planning for the same group of people
How it works
- Create a shared group for your home. In Squadly, shared costs are kept in a group that the app calls a trip, so name it after your address or your lease and invite your roommates.
- Add an expense whenever someone pays. Say who paid, who shares it and how to split it.
- Check the balance whenever you like. It shows who owes whom, updated for every new expense.
Splitting rent fairly
Rent is a decision you make once, and the split is worth getting right. If you are still working it out, the rent split calculator shows equal, by-room-size and by-income splits side by side, and our guide explains how to split rent with roommates fairly. For a one-off shared bill, try the bill split calculator.
Your own money stays your own
Squadly also has a personal finance area, with income, bills, debts, goals and budgets, that is private to your account. Your squad only sees the expenses you share with them.
