Splitwise on the web: what only the website does

Is there a Splitwise web version?

Yes. Splitwise’s home page lists the web app next to its mobile apps as free to use, as of October 2026. You sign in on Splitwise’s website, and the privacy statement says you “will need to create an account.”

The help center gives web steps for many everyday tasks, listed in the table further down. Four things in it are tied to the web, covered next.

What can you only do on the web?

• The reimbursement split. Splitwise’s list of ways to split an expense marks Reimbursement as “web only.” The other types are equally, exact amounts, percentage, shares, adjustment and itemized. Splitwise split types walks through each one.
• One list of every recurring expense. Splitwise says, “To see all of your recurring expenses in one place, use the web app.” Click “All Expenses” in the left sidebar, then click the calendar icon. The same icon inside a group or friendship lists only that group’s or friend’s repeats. The mobile app shows a repeat’s frequency and next date when you tap one instance. More on that in Splitwise recurring expenses.
• A name-only placeholder friend. You can add “someone tracked by name, without contact info” to a group from the web app. For adding someone without their email or phone, see adding a friend to Splitwise without their email.
• The printable summary. On a laptop or desktop, select the group, then click “View Printable Summary” below the “Settle Up” button. A dropdown in the top right picks one month or all time. Splitwise points to it, with Recent Activity and the export, for checking a balance that looks wrong. See why a Splitwise balance looks wrong.

Where do common tasks live on the web?

Splitwise gives web click paths for these tasks. The table lists them as the help center words them.

Task	Click path on the web
Add an expense	Click “Add an expense” at the top, enter a description and amount, then click “equally” in “Paid by you and split equally”
Export a group or friendship	Open it from the left sidebar, click the gear icon in the top right corner, click “Export Spreadsheet”
Undo a cash payment record	Click “Recent Activity”, hover over the payment record, click the red trash can icon
Restore a deleted expense	Click “Recent activity” in the left sidebar, find the deletion record, click “Undelete expense”
Turn Simplify Debts on or off	Gear icon, “Edit group settings”, “Advanced settings”, then the toggle
Delete a group	Group in the left sidebar, gear icon, “Edit group settings”, scroll to the bottom, “Delete group”

Which steps are written for mobile?

The help center words the edit and delete steps for mobile. To change the split on an existing expense, it says to “tap the expense and then tap the pencil icon in the top right corner to edit it.” To delete an expense or payment, it says to tap it and then tap the trash can icon. Splitwise says anyone involved in an expense or in its group can edit or delete it, and that it does not support group admins or special permissions.

How do you export a group from the web?

1. Open the group or friendship from the left sidebar.
2. Click the gear icon in the top right corner.
3. Click “Export Spreadsheet.” Another Splitwise page words it “Export as spreadsheet.”

The file has one row per transaction. The numbers under each name show the effect on that person’s balance: positive if they paid or made a payment, negative if they borrowed or received one. A “Cost” column holds the total. The spreadsheet export is not marked Pro, though the JSON account backup is “Pro subscribers only.”

EvenOut’s free Splitwise import reads that spreadsheet and builds a new group from it. The steps are in how to move a Splitwise group to EvenOut.

What should you do next?

If you need the full recurring list, the printable summary, a placeholder friend or the reimbursement split, open the web app. For the rest, the table above lists the click path.
