What this comparison covers

  • Features, not a complete product ranking

    Splitwise offers shared-expense tracking and additional tools through Pro. This page compares a few specific features, not every difference between the apps.

  • Eider is a newer product

    We're building for people who keep separate finances and share regular costs. You can try the core features for free.

  • Plus will add to the free product

    Our paid membership is planned to include receipt tools and spending insights. It won't unlock standing splits or remove an expense limit. What's free today stays free.

Starting with Eider

Can I import my Splitwise history?
Import isn't available yet. You can start a nest and add the shared expenses you still need to track.
Will the free features stay free?
Yes. Nests, expenses, standing splits, repeating expenses, and settling up stay free, with no member or expense limits. Plus is planned to add features on top.
Does everyone in my nest need Plus?
No. Everyone can use the free features. An annual Plus membership is planned to also cover receipt scanning and split by item for everyone in your nests. The receipt library, insights, bank sync, and early access stay with the subscriber.
Does Eider transfer the money?
No. Pay through your bank, a payment app, or cash, then record the payment in Eider. You can also open Venmo through its link.
