Who owes whom
A weekend, groceries, a gift together: enter what everyone paid upfront, and see the transfers that make everyone even.
Everything is worked out in your browser: nothing is sent, nothing is kept.
How it is worked out
What everyone paid is added up and divided by the number of people: that is everyone's share. Whoever paid more than their share gets the difference back, whoever paid less sends it.
The calculator then looks for the fewest transfers that clear everything, by the same rule fleen settles a household's balances with. Someone may pay back a person they shared nothing with directly: the total is right, and there are fewer transfers.

Questions
Why fewer transfers than debts?
If Léa owes Tom 20 € and Tom owes Sam 20 €, Léa can pay Sam directly: one transfer instead of two, and everyone is even.
What if not everyone takes part in every cost?
This calculator shares everything equally. In fleen, each cost has its own people and split, and the balance works itself out.
Are the amounts rounded?
To the cent, and the cent left over is given to someone: the transfers add up exactly to the debts.
