💡 Inspiration

Whenever I plan a trip with my friends, it becomes very hard for me to keep track of my budget during the trip, and handling various bills is very hard.

You can send a friend request to your friends and chat with them, you can also post a blog. This web app can be very useful during trips and other occasions where calculation of budget and who pays for what is necessary.
