About this app

BillBuddys makes splitting bills with friends, family, and roommates simple and stress-free 🎉 Whether you're sharing a dinner tab, splitting rent, planning a group trip, or collecting money for a gift, BillBuddys keeps everyone on the same page.

🚀 HOW IT WORKS

📝 Create a Bill
Add your expense, set the total amount, or itemize individual costs, and invite contributors to join. Share equally or assign custom amounts to each person.

👥 Invite Anyone
Add friends using their unique BillBuddys tag, search your contacts, or invite anyone via SMS. Contributors don't need the app to view and pay their share.

📊 Track Payments
Watch contributions come in with real-time updates. See who has paid, who's pending, and send friendly reminders to those running behind.

💰 Settle Instantly
Collect payments directly through M-Pesa. Choose Buy Goods, Pay Bill, or Send Money options for flexible settlement.
