Couple expenses, split your way
Every couple splits costs their own way: 50/50, in proportion to what each earns or a mix of both. Pa-ga-me records what each of you pays and shows who owes whom at any time.
50/50 or proportional
If you earn the same, split equally. If not, split by shares: for example, 3 shares for the higher earner and 2 for the other, i.e. 60 % and 40 %.
You can mix both: household costs in proportion, going out 50/50.
No joint account needed
If you don’t share an account, each of you pays by card and adds it. Every so often you make a single payment to settle up.
Example: a month as a couple (60 % / 40 %)
Emma and Liam split household costs in proportion to their income and going out 50/50.
| Expense | Paid by | Amount | Split among |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rent | Emma | €950.00 | 60 % / 40 % |
| Monthly groceries | Liam | €320.00 | 60 % / 40 % |
| Cinema and dinner | Liam | €64.00 | Everyone |
