Your bank moves the money.

CanSplit calculates shares and records payment reports. You pay the host through your bank. The host confirms receipt; CanSplit does not access your bank account or verify transfers.

You choose when AI helps.

Automatic receipt reading requires your confirmation before the photo is sent through our server to OpenAI. You can enter the bill manually instead. Always check quantities, prices and the total.

A LITTLE MORE DETAIL

Your table.
Your questions.

We explain the limits as well as the features. Read our privacy and data information for the full retention details.

Keep your table link private.

A table link lets people reach joining information. Joined diners can see the information needed to split and settle, including names, shares and the host’s payment QR. A table is shared with its diners, not private to each individual.

Receipt details, not a photo archive.

CanSplit does not save original receipt photos in its bill database. Extracted bill details are saved. We ask OpenAI not to store the response; this is not a guarantee of zero provider retention.

Saved bills stay with the host.

Unsaved tables have 24-hour access. Saved bills remain in the host’s account; there is currently no seven- or 30-day history limit. Closing a table ends guest access and records cleared balances as waived, not paid.

Control what you keep.

Account holders can export individual bill summaries, edit preferences, remove their saved PayNow QR and move bills to the bin. Binned bills are recoverable for 30 days. Removing a profile QR does not remove copies on existing bills.

Account deletion starts in the app.

Delete your account from My bills → Account settings, using a fresh email code. This removes your profile and hosted bills. Guest entries on other hosts’ bills are not linked to your account and remain with those hosts; contact support for help.

HONEST LIMITS

What this page doesn’t promise.

  • Receipt recognition can make mistakes. Check the receipt before sharing a bill.
  • A payment marked by a diner is not proof of a bank transfer.
  • Database cleanup depends on scheduled jobs completing. Provider logs and backups can have separate retention periods.
  • These are product statements, not independent security certification. Backup retention and full device-level deletion acceptance still need operational verification.
