Venmo finally launches an in-app bill splitting feature

Venmo is rolling out a receipt-scanning feature that lets users itemise a bill and split it among friends in the app. It calculates each person’s share of tax and tip, then creates payment requests, reducing the manual work involved in settling a shared bill.

The feature works across mobile devices and is beginning to roll out, with wider availability expected within a few weeks. It follows Venmo Groups, introduced in 2023 for shared ongoing costs, and comes amid competition from Apple Cash’s receipt-splitting tools and other payment apps.
