Updated: 2026-10-06

Splid is free to download, and its site says the app is free, but its store listings show in-app purchases. As of October 2026, the US listing that names them shows Splid Plus at $3.99 and 2 Groups at $2.99, with no billing period and no description of either. EvenOut's free plan has no daily expense limit and no ads, and its two paid features are named and priced.

Key points:
- As of October 2026, Splid is free to download and needs no sign-up, but its US store listing names two in-app purchases: Splid Plus at $3.99 and 2 Groups at $2.99.
- EvenOut's free plan has no daily expense limit and no ads, and charts, search, repeating expenses and the Splitwise import are free.
- EvenOut names its paid features and their price: receipt scanning and the assistant, at $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year in the US.
- Splid's listings give no billing period and do not say what either purchase covers, so do not assume a one-time price or a group count.
- Excel export needs an in-app purchase according to the listing footnote, while PDF export is not marked either way.

## Is Splid free to use?

Free to download and start, with paid items inside the app. Splid's home page says the app is free and offers a "Free download". As of October 2026, one store listing shows the price as "Free" with in-app purchases, and the other shows "In-app purchases" as well. The two do not agree on prices, as the next section shows.

You do not need an account to begin. The site says there is "no sign-up required", and a group you do not share online stays on your device.

## What do the in-app purchases cost?

As of October 2026, one store listing names two purchases and shows the same two numbers in each currency: 3.99 for Splid Plus and 2.99 for 2 Groups. Its US, UK and Germany versions show them like this.

| Storefront | Splid Plus | 2 Groups |
|---|---|---|
| US | $3.99 | $2.99 |
| UK | £3.99 | £2.99 |
| Germany | 3,99 € | 2,99 € (listed as "2 Gruppen") |

The other store listing gives one price per region and names no item.

| Region | Price shown by the other listing |
|---|---|
| US | $3.49 per item |
| UK | £2.49 if billed through the store |
| Germany | 2,99 € if billed through the store |

None of them matches the first listing's price for Splid Plus, and none names an item, so they cannot be read as the price of Splid Plus. A price applies to its own storefront, not to every country.

If you bought both US items from the first listing, the two prices add up to $3.99 + $2.99 = $6.98. Whether that is paid once or repeats is not shown.

## What do the purchases cover?

The listings give names and prices without a description. The US listing does not say what Splid Plus changes, what 2 Groups adds, how long either lasts, or whether either is a subscription. Splid's website has no pricing page.

That leaves several things you cannot know before you buy:

- **A free group limit.** No Splid page states how many groups the free app allows.
- **What each purchase adds.** Splid Plus and 2 Groups are names and prices only, with nothing on what either changes.
- **Whether a purchase is one-time.** No billing period is shown, and neither item is labelled a subscription or a lifetime purchase.
- **Limits per group.** Splid states no limit on members or expenses either way.

## Which feature does the listing tie to a purchase?

Excel export. Both store descriptions say "Download summaries as PDF or Excel* files" with the footnote "*Excel export available via in-app purchase." The footnote names Excel only. The website lists PDF and Excel summaries with no footnote and calls the app free, so the listing is the stricter reading.

Two things stay open. Nothing says whether PDF export is free, and nothing says whether Splid Plus or 2 Groups includes Excel. If a spreadsheet of the totals is why you want Splid, ask first.

## What does Splid say the app does?

Splid's site and listings mention the features below. Apart from Excel, the listings do not mark which of them sit behind a purchase.

- **Offline and shared groups.** It "works on and offline", you can create an offline group, and you can switch on sync to enter expenses together.
- **Fewest payments.** The listings say it handles "as few payments as possible", and they mention no switch to turn that off.
- **Unequal splits.** The listing mentions splitting bills unequally.
- **Totals, categories and search.** The listing mentions a group total, and its version history adds categories and search by title.

## How do you find out what you would get before paying?

Test it on a throwaway group first. Create an offline group, add a few expenses and see which features you actually reach. Then ask Splid at info@splid.app which purchase covers the one you want, and keep the reply.

Check the price in your own storefront before buying, since the listings show different amounts by country and by store.

## How does EvenOut's pricing differ?

EvenOut lists what is free, what is paid and what the paid items do, and the paid list is two items. Splid's US listing names two purchases and gives their prices, without describing either.

| Detail | EvenOut | Splid |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | No daily expense limit, no ads; charts, search, repeating expenses and the Splitwise import are free | Free to download, with in-app purchases listed as of October 2026 |
| Paid items | Receipt scanning and the assistant | Splid Plus and 2 Groups (US listing) |
| What they cover | Scanning reads items, tax and tip and splits each item; the assistant answers questions and drafts expenses you confirm | Not described in the listing |
| Price (US) | $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year | $3.99 and $2.99, no billing period shown |

EvenOut has no data export, which matters if the Excel summary is why you are looking at Splid. For a feature-by-feature view, see [Splitwise vs Splid vs EvenOut](https://www.evenoutapp.com/alternatives/splitwise-vs-splid). The same kind of channel-by-channel pricing question for another app is covered in [is Settle Up free](https://www.evenoutapp.com/guides/is-settle-up-free).

## What should you do next?

For most readers who want the price settled before they start, EvenOut is the one to try first. Its free plan has no daily expense limit and no ads, and its two paid features, receipt scanning and the assistant, are priced above.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you export a Splid group to Excel for free?

The store descriptions offer summaries as PDF or Excel and add a footnote that Excel export is available via in-app purchase. Splid's website lists PDF and Excel with no footnote, so the listing is the safer guide. Nothing says whether PDF is free, or which purchase includes Excel.

### Do you need an account to use Splid?

Splid's site says no sign-up is required. You choose per group whether to share it online, and a shared group works through an access code. A group you do not share stays only on the device that made it.

### Does Splid work without a connection?

Splid's site says it works on and offline and offers a Create an offline group option. To enter expenses together with other people, you turn on sync for the group instead.

### Who can answer questions about what the purchases include?

Splid's support page gives info@splid.app as the contact, and the site has no help center or FAQ page. Ask before you buy which purchase covers the feature you want, and get the answer in writing.
