Everyone pays for what they had. Exactly.

How Outzu works it out

1. Your items. Everything you tap is yours.
2. Shared items. A dish tapped by three people is split three ways. You can set portions too — say you had two of the five dumplings.
3. Service, tip and discounts. These are shared in proportion to what each person ordered. Order more, pay a bigger share of the service; skip the wine, pay no service on it.
4. The odd amounts. Rs 3,700 between three people doesn’t always divide exactly. Outzu hands out what’s left over fairly, so the shares always add up to the exact total on the receipt — never more or less.

A worked example

Four friends, Rs 33,250 of food, 12.5% service (Rs 4,156), Rs 37,406 in total. Ali paid.

The four shares add up to Rs 37,406 exactly. Sara, Priya and Tom each get one payment to make, with Ali’s details and a reference.

Paying back

Outzu never holds your money. You pay your friend directly — bank transfer, IBAN, or the payment app they prefer — and tap “I’ve paid”. They tap “Received”, and when everyone has, the bill is settled. Got cash? There’s a button for that too.
