Flowt for roommates
A roommate expense tracker for rent, bills, and real shared life.
Flowt keeps utilities, groceries, household supplies, rent-related costs, and repayments in one shared ledger, so no one has to reconstruct the month from messages and bank transfers.
Know who paid, who joined, and what is still outstanding
Roommate costs are rarely limited to one equal monthly bill. One person buys cleaning supplies, another covers internet, and only some roommates join a grocery run or group purchase. Flowt records the payer, participants, category, date, and split for each expense so the ledger reflects what actually happened.
Use equal splits when everyone shares a cost, select only the roommates involved when participation differs, or use a custom split when bedrooms, usage, or agreements are unequal.
Keep a shared household budget beside the IOUs
A normal bill splitter can calculate debts but does not always show whether the household is overspending. Flowt connects those obligations to category budgets and monthly charts. Roommates can review the cost of groceries, utilities, supplies, and other shared categories without maintaining a separate spreadsheet.
Handle receipts and settle up cleanly
Scan a receipt to capture the purchase details, review the result, then assign the right category and participants. When it is time to repay each other, Flowt calculates the current settlement plan and lets the group record payments, keeping historical expenses from being counted again.
Common roommate uses
- Rent-related household charges and recurring utilities.
- Internet, streaming, cleaning products, and shared supplies.
- Groceries or meals involving only some members.
- Furniture, moving costs, deposits, and one-time purchases.
- Trip or event costs tracked in a separate Budget Space.
One Budget Space per shared context
Keep the apartment ledger separate from a vacation, event, or side project by creating distinct Budget Spaces. Each space has its own members, expenses, budget context, and settlement history, which reduces the chance that unrelated costs get mixed together.
