Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — all the core features (creating groups, adding and splitting expenses, tracking balances, settling debts, multi-currency support) are free for everyone. We also offer Debty Premium — an optional subscription that unlocks extra features like AI receipt scanning, recurring expenses, spending charts, expense exports, and an ad-free experience.

No! Debty runs inside Telegram, so your friends just need Telegram — no extra apps to download.

You can create a group directly from the Debty app, by inviting the Debty bot to a chat or by using an inline @debty_app_bot.

Open your group, tap the "Invite" button, and share the invitation link directly through Telegram. Or use the @debty_app_bot to create a group within a Telegram chat.

In your group, tap the "Add Expense" button, enter the expense details (amount, description, who paid), select who participated, and save. The expense will be automatically split among participants. Premium subscribers can also scan a receipt photo and have the AI fill in line items automatically.

Absolutely! Debty supports multiple splitting methods: equal split, shares-based split, and exact amounts. Choose the method that works best for each expense.

Yes, you can edit or delete any expense you created. Just tap on the expense to open it, then use the edit or delete options. All balances will be automatically recalculated.

Yes! Debty supports 30+ currencies with automatic exchange rate conversion. Perfect for international trips and groups with members from different countries.

We use real-time exchange rates from a trusted third-party provider. Rates are updated regularly to ensure accurate conversions for your expenses.

No, Debty is an expense tracking tool only. It calculates who owes whom, but actual payments happen outside the app using your preferred method (bank transfer, PayPal, Revolut, cash, etc.).

Open the debts tab in the group and mark the debts you've paid off as settled.

Absolutely. Your data stays between you and your group members. We don't sell or share your information with third parties.

Only members of your group can see the expenses in that group. Each group is private and separate from your other groups.

Yes, you can request deletion of your account and all associated data by contacting our support. We'll process your request in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

Debty Premium is an optional subscription that unlocks extra features on top of the free version: AI receipt scanning, recurring expenses, interactive spending charts, expense exports (PDF/CSV/JSON), and an ad-free experience. The free tier always covers the core experience — Premium just makes life easier.

Premium is an auto-renewing monthly subscription paid in Telegram Stars. Unless you cancel auto-renewal, it renews about every 30 days at the then-current price. You can cancel auto-renewal at any time from inside the mini app and keep access until the end of the period you've already paid for.

When adding an expense, Premium subscribers can attach a receipt photo. The image is sent to our AI provider (Google Gemini), which extracts each line item, price and tax. You can then review the result, assign items to participants, and save the expense. Receipt images themselves are not stored long-term — only the parsed expense data ends up in your group.
