Shared wallets

Shared wallets let you track money together and always see who paid for what. They work well for couples, families, roommates or a trip with friends.

Sharing is part of Spendee Plus and Spendee Premium. Only the owner of the wallet needs a subscription.

How to share a wallet

  1. Open More and tap Wallets.
  2. Tap the wallet you want to share.
  3. In the wallet settings, find Invite people and tap Invite.
  4. Enter the email address of the person you want to invite. You can add more than one person.
  5. Save with the check mark at the top.

You can also start from the Accounts tab: open the wallet and choose Invite or Invite People.

The people you invite get the invitation in the Spendee app and by email. Once they accept, the wallet appears in their app too. If you’re on the free plan, tapping Invite shows you the plans first.

Owner and guests

Everyone in a shared wallet can add, edit and delete transactions, no matter who created them.

The owner manages the wallet itself. Only the owner can change its name, color and visible categories, invite people and remove members. The shared wallet uses the owner’s categories.

  • To remove someone: the owner opens the wallet settings, taps the cross next to the person and confirms. Their transactions in the wallet are transferred to the owner.
  • To leave a wallet: a guest opens the wallet settings and taps Leave Wallet.

Do all members need Plus or Premium?

No. Only the owner needs Plus or Premium. Guests can use the free plan. A wallet someone shares with you doesn’t count toward your free wallet limit.

Can I share a bank account?

Not yet. Only manual (cash) wallets can be shared. Bank account wallets can’t be shared at the moment.

Are budgets shared too?

No. Budgets are personal. Each member sets up their own budgets, and transactions from the shared wallet count toward them like transactions from any other wallet.

On the free plan you can set your total budget. Category budgets and custom budgets need Plus or Premium, also for guests in a shared wallet.
