Tricount Alternatives: Which App for Which Group?

Checked against official listings on 11 October 2026 · By Florian Ronsse, founder of FairLead

Tricount is a popular, free expense ledger. If it does not fit your group, these are the alternatives worth a look, grouped by what they are built for. We make RoundFair, so we have tried to keep this list factual.

First: do you need an alternative?

Tricount's App Store listing describes a free, unlimited app with multiple currencies, offline use and payment requests, and tricount.com says it runs on iOS and Android. For trips and shared homes that covers most needs. The alternatives below make sense when your group needs something specific.

Based on each app's official App Store listing and website, checked on 11 October 2026.

Splitwise

Its App Store listing describes groups and friendships, unequal splits by percentage, shares or exact amounts, recurring bills, 100+ currencies and a web version. It suits long-running groups. See our RoundFair vs Splitwise comparison.

Splid

Splid's listing highlights working offline, sharing groups with no sign-up, more than 150 currencies with automatic conversion, and PDF or Excel summaries. See RoundFair vs Splid.

Settle Up

Settle Up runs on iOS, Android and the web, works offline, and lets friends view a group through a link. Premium removes ads and adds receipt photos, recurring expenses and statistics. See RoundFair vs Settle Up.

RoundFair

RoundFair is not a ledger. It is built for nights out: it records each round, shows whose turn it is and who is behind, splits itemised bills with tip and tax, and settles the evening. It is free, needs no account and keeps data on your device and in your iCloud. If your Tricount groups are mostly nights out, it may be the simpler tool; for trips and households, keep a ledger. See RoundFair vs Tricount.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best free alternative to Tricount?

It depends on the job. For shared expenses over time, Splid and Settle Up are close alternatives. For rounds on a night out, RoundFair is built for that specific job.

Is there a Tricount alternative without an account?

Splid's listing says no sign-up is needed, and RoundFair has no accounts at all.
