Ski condo calculator — who's owed what, night by night

Splitting a condo by the nights each person stayed

A condo is booked for the whole group, but not everyone is there every night.

• Check the nights. Enter check-in and check-out once, and every person starts checked for every night. Uncheck the nights someone wasn't there.
• Pay for your own nights. Each night's cost is split among whoever stayed that night, so a late arrival pays only for the nights they were there.
• Empty nights are shared. If nobody is checked for a night, everyone shares it, because the booking still had to be paid.
• A night can cost more. Tap “Set a different price for a night” to give a weekend night its own price. The other nights split what is left of the total evenly.

The rest of the trip

Groceries, lift tickets and other shared costs work the way they do on the main calculator.

• Add them as expenses. Use the New expense card for anything the group shared that isn't the condo.
• Even or exact. Split a cost evenly among whoever shared it, or choose “Exact” in the Split row and type each person's share.
• Anyone can pay. Choose who paid for each cost. If two people covered one bill, switch the Who paid row to “Several people”.

Settling up, person to person

Once the expenses are in, the Who's owed what section shows who pays whom.

• One figure per pair. The condo and every other cost are added up, then worked out as a single amount between each pair of people who shared. You settle up once with each person, not once per expense.
• Copy it to the group. Tap “Copy” and paste the result into your group chat. Each line says who pays whom and how much, to the cent.
• It stays on your phone. Everything you type stays on this device and is never sent anywhere. Come back later and pick up where you left off, or tap “Delete everything” for a clean slate.

What if someone arrives late?

Uncheck the nights they were not there. Each night is split among whoever stayed that night, so they pay only for their own nights. In a $900.00 condo for three nights with four people, someone who arrives for the last two nights pays $150.00 and the other three pay $250.00 each.

What if nobody stayed one night?

That night is shared by everyone in the group, because the booking still had to be paid. A note under the nights names it, and the shares still add up to the condo total.

Can one night cost more than another?

Yes. Tap “Set a different price for a night” and type the price for that night. The other nights split what is left of the total evenly. If you price every night, the prices have to add up to the condo total.

Can I add groceries and lift tickets?

Yes. Add them in the New expense card and split them evenly or exactly, the same way as on the main calculator. They are worked out together with the condo when the page shows who is owed what.

What happens to a leftover cent?

Each person's condo share is worked out once, after all of their nights are added up, so the cents are settled once for each person and never night by night. Any leftover cents are handed out one at a time, with ties going by the order of your list, so the shares always add up to the condo total exactly. For example, $1,000 over three nights for four people comes to $250.00 each.

Is this calculator free?

Yes. It costs nothing to use, you do not need an account, and there is nothing to sign up for.

Where are the names and amounts kept?

On the device you are using, in this browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and your work is still here the next time you open the page. To clear it, tap “Delete everything” under the calculator.

Why does it not tell everyone to pay one person?

The page only asks for a payment between two people who actually shared an expense. If two people never split a cost, nothing is owed between them, so nobody is asked to send money to someone they shared nothing with.
