Shared expenses as a couple

Whether it's 50/50 or by income: there's no right or wrong model – only one that works for both of you. What matters is that it stays transparent and simple.

Choose a model that fits you

Some couples split everything equally, others by income share, and others still keep a shared fund for fixed costs. What matters is that you consciously agree on a model.

  • Split equally (50/50)
  • By income (percentage split)
  • Shared fund for fixed costs

Reflecting unequal incomes fairly

If one partner earns more, a percentage split is often fairer than a strict 50/50. With a percentage or share-based split, you reflect that without constantly doing the math.

Frequently asked questions

Is 50/50 always fair?

Not necessarily. With significantly different incomes, many couples find a split by share fairer.

How do you stay on top of things?

By having both partners log expenses continuously while the balance is calculated automatically – so it's always clear who's ahead or behind.
