PayMates

We get it—because we’ve been in your shoes. As a group of friends who moved out at a young age, we’ve faced all the awkward, cringey moments that come with splitting bills. Whether it’s reminding your friend they owe you $13.50 for a Chipotle bowl or trying to break down an entire weekend of expenses (“So… you owe me $69.52 for the restaurant, skating rink, and snacks”), asking for money can feel uncomfortable—and let’s be real—it sucks. Honestly, most of us have let things slide just to avoid feeling like the "budget nerd" of the group. Sound familiar? That’s exactly why we built PayMates—because we were tired of how these little things strained friendships and made things weird. PayMates was designed to make sharing expenses simple, fair, and totally hassle-free. With automatic reminders and clear debt tracking, you can skip the awkward convos and get straight to the good stuff—like planning the next hangout. Here’s how PayMates stands out: 🎮 Personalized profiles with badges, a ranking system, and rewards for being a responsible friend (because fairness deserves some bragging rights). ⏱️ Automatic, friendly reminders so you don’t have to nag anyone. 🗒️ Expense tracking for everything—from rent and groceries to subscriptions and weekend plans.

The best thing that I’ve ever seen🔥🔥🔥

Simple, easy, brilliant 👌🏼

This app looks awesome can’t wait for it to drop!!

Splitting bills with roommates doesn’t have to be awkward now that PayMates exists. Whether it’s rent, groceries, or random weekend hangouts, this app helps track everything and makes friendships (sometimes maybe not) work. PayMates really does take the hassle out of sharing costs and keeps everyone on the same page. Great app!

Very interesting concept. I would love to see how this can develop to a higher scale
