Expense sharing & tips · for iPhone

Split it fairly.
Tip it right.

Wayfare does two things every trip needs. It shares expenses between friends — scan the receipt, tap who had what, settle up in the fewest transfers. And it tells you what to tip, wherever you are, without ever tipping twice. Use one, the other, or both on the same bill.

How it works

From the bill on the table to square with everyone — tip included.

Start a trip

Name it — "Lisbon May'27" picks the flag and currency for you — and send friends a link. Add people who don't use the app by name.

Scan the receipt

Point the camera, pick a photo or PDF, or share it from any app. Lines, prices, tax, service and the total are read on your iPhone.

Tap who had what

Assign each line to one person, several, or uneven shares. Shared bottles and starters split themselves; the tip follows what each person had.

Settle up

Wayfare nets every expense into the fewest transfers — and makes a tidy PDF report of the whole trip.

Receipt reading

It reads the bill, not just the total.

Wayfare finds every line and price on receipts from anywhere — in any alphabet, crumpled, tilted, or three bills in one photo — and checks them against the total so nothing goes missing.

  • Quantities, discounts, added tax and service charges
  • Card slips: the tip you already added is recognised
  • Item names translated into your language, on the device
  • The currency from the receipt, the trip, or your choice

Tips that fit the place

Tip like a local — and never twice.

When you scan a receipt or add an expense, Wayfare suggests the tip people actually leave there: 20% at a New York diner, a round-up in a Lisbon café, nothing at all in Tokyo. Tap the ⓘ to see why.

  • Spots a service charge already on the bill — "servizio", "service compris", "gratuity", "サービス料"
  • Sees a tip you already added on the card slip
  • Restaurants, fast food, cafés, bars, taxis and hotels, in 85 countries
  • Works for a single receipt too — no trip needed
  • Percentages, round totals, or exactly what you paid

Fair, to the cent

Splits that make sense to everyone.

Every split adds up to the cent — no rounding pennies lost or invented. Several people can pay one bill, each expense can have its own currency, and the balance is always up to date.

  • Equal, by item, or uneven shares you drag into place
  • Tip and service split by what each person had, or equally
  • Several payers on one bill
  • Group by day or by kind: meals, taxis, museums…

Questions

Good to know.

Can I use it just for tips?

Yes. Scan a receipt from the main screen, the widget or the share sheet without choosing a trip: Wayfare reads it and suggests the tip, with the reasoning a tap away. Then add it to a trip, start a new one, or simply let it go. The tipping guide is also free to read on the web.

Do my friends need the app?

No. Add them by name and split their part like anyone else's. When they install Wayfare, they open your invite link and join the trip — everything is already there.

Which receipts can it read?

Paper receipts photographed or scanned, photos from your library, PDFs, and screenshots of app receipts such as taxi rides. Restaurant bills with card slips, supermarket receipts in many languages, and several receipts in one photo all work. Anything it can't read, you can type in.

How does Wayfare know how much to tip?

It looks at where you are — the receipt, the trip's name or flag, and the currency — and what kind of place it was, then suggests what's customary there from the Wayfare tipping guide. If the bill already has a service charge, or you added a tip on the card slip, it says so instead of suggesting more.

Does it work without a connection?

Yes. Add expenses and scan receipts in airplane mode; everything syncs through iCloud when you're back online.

Which devices does it run on?

iPhone with iOS 26 or later.
