How to Use Venmo for Split Payments and Group Expenses

Venmo is a popular way to split payments with friends, but it can be overwhelming to figure out how to use it. You can link your debit card, credit card, or bank account to Venmo to make payments.

To split a payment with friends, create a new payment on Venmo and enter the amount you want to split. You can then add the names of the people you want to split the payment with, and Venmo will calculate the amount each person owes.

Venmo also allows you to create a group chat to discuss expenses with friends. To do this, go to the "People" tab and select the friends you want to add to the group.

If you need to split a purchase with others, you can send charge requests to split the payment. This way, you can change the amount requested from each user so the purchase isn't evenly split.

You can also exclude yourself from the split calculation, and the other users must accept the request to complete the payment.

Venmo's Groups feature makes managing expenses with others a lot easier. With it, you can create a group with all the members who need to split the expenses, add expenses, and even automatically calculate the amount of money each member owes.

Here are the steps to create a group:

You can split a purchase with one or many users on Venmo. This feature allows you to send charge requests to other users and change the amount requested from each user.

The total amount you'll request is visible as you change the amount from each user, and you'll know if the requested total is above or below the split amount. Any split transaction won't affect your original payment amount.

You can also exclude yourself from the split calculation if needed. To complete the payment, the other users must accept the request.

Here are the steps to split a purchase:

1. Send a charge request to split a purchase with one or many users.

2. Change the amount requested from each user.

3. See the total amount you'll request and whether it's above or below the split amount.

4. Exclude yourself from the split calculation if needed.

5. Wait for the other users to accept the request to complete the payment.

Note: You can learn more about sending or requesting money with multiple recipients on the Venmo website.
