The Old Way vs. The New Way

The old way:

1. Look at receipt

1. Do math on your phone calculator

1. Open Venmo

1. Type in each person's name

1. Type in each amount

1. Try to remember what everyone had for the note

1. Send 5 separate requests

1. Realize you forgot tax

1. Send awkward follow-up messages

The new way:

1. Scan receipt with Checkify

1. Tap "Send Venmo Request"

1. Done

Why Itemized Venmo Requests Get Paid Faster

Here's a secret: people pay Venmo requests faster when they understand what they're paying for.

A request that says "dinner" sits in the queue. A request that says "Burger ($14) + Fries ($5) + Tax & Tip ($4.23) = $23.23 at Joe's Diner" gets paid immediately.

Checkify generates these detailed breakdowns automatically and pre-fills your Venmo request. Your friends see exactly what they owe and why.

Step-by-Step: Splitting a Bill and Sending Venmo Requests

1. Open Checkify and scan your receipt

1. Add your group (the app remembers contacts for next time)

1. Assign items by tapping who had what

1. Review totals — tax and tip are calculated automatically

1. Tap "Venmo" next to each person's name

1. Send — the amount and note are pre-filled

Total time: Under 60 seconds.
