Is Make It Even actually free for students, or is there a catch?

No catch — the free tier covers 3 groups, unlimited expenses, all core split types, recurring expenses, debt simplification, and reminders. Pro adds AI scanning and unlimited groups, but most students won't need it.

Can I use Make It Even with just two or three flatmates?

Yes — you can add as few or as many people as you need. There's no minimum group size.

Does Make It Even have ads?

No. The free tier is funded by Pro upgrades, not advertising, so there's nothing to click through or dismiss.

What if a flatmate moves out mid-year?

You can remove them from the group after you've settled up, and the expense history stays intact for the remaining members.

Can we split a grocery shop where different flatmates contributed different amounts?

Yes — the exact-amount split lets you enter each person's share precisely, so a £60 shop where one flatmate only owes £10 is handled correctly.

For Students

Split the bills. Not your friendship.

Whether it's a shared flat, a road trip, or a group grocery order, Make It Even keeps everyone's share honest — with no ads and nothing to pay.

The usual headaches

Chasing flatmates for their share of the broadband bill every single month
The person who always buys the communal milk eventually stops buying the communal milk
Group chats full of 'you still owe me from last time' with no record of what last time actually was
Settling up before summer break when nobody can agree on what's outstanding

How Make It Even helps

Genuinely free, no tricks

Up to 3 active groups, unlimited expenses, all split types, recurring bills, debt simplification, and payment reminders — no ads, no daily limits, no credit card required.

Recurring bills for monthly house costs

Set up rent, Wi-Fi, and utilities as recurring expenses once and they'll reappear automatically each cycle. The reminder to pay goes out so you don't have to send it yourself.

Payment reminders that aren't awkward

Send a reminder through the app instead of writing the text yourself — it's less uncomfortable and more likely to get a response.

Debt simplification

In a house of five people, Make It Even collapses the web of IOUs into the minimum number of actual transfers, so nobody has to pay three different people to settle up.

Works as a PWA on your phone

Install Make It Even to your home screen like an app — no app store required, works on any phone without taking up storage.

Group monthly budgets

Set a shared limit on groceries or household supplies and track spending against it together — useful when the house is trying to cut costs.

Get going in three steps

1
Create your house group for free
No credit card, no trial countdown. Set up a group for your flat, add your flatmates, and start logging the next bill that comes in.
2
Log shared expenses as they happen
Add a grocery run, a utility bill, or last night's takeaway in a few taps. Split equally or by exact amount if not everyone got the same.
3
Settle up before you forget
Make It Even shows exactly who owes what and by how much — tap through to Venmo, Cash App, or PayPal to settle without any manual arithmetic.
