Organise and share with lists

A list can be just for you

Open Menu → Lists → +, name the list and pick a colour. Use it for a trip, renovation or any group of expenses. Invitations are optional and lists are free.

Choose the list when adding or editing an entry. Filter your diary by list from the menu.

Invite someone

Open the list and invite someone who has a Papirer account by email. They can accept or decline. Once they accept, they can see the list and add expenses. Shared changes are visible to its members.

Check the destination when saving: personal and shared entries have different visibility.

Splits and balances

With expense splitting enabled, members' shares determine who owes what. Edit the percentages in the list settings; they must total 100%.

If you pay €100 on a 50/50 split, the other person owes €50. If they then pay €60, your share is €30 and the net balance becomes €20 in your favour.

Turn splitting off for shared tracking without debts. A list total is different from your personal share in reports.

Settle up

Make the payment outside Papirer. The recipient records the settlement and amount in the list. This updates the balance between members; it is not a bank transfer or a new expense.

Recurring entries can also belong to a list.
