Bank account details somewhere/anywhere
Hi. Liking this service so far.
Its nice keeping track of debts, however, it is not much use not knowing how to pay it. (Not everyone uses paypal).
In UK and Australia, someone just needs bank account details to do a transfer. Would be nice either to have one or all of the following:
My own account details available for my friends to see. Even if not in their own fields, maybe in a "other info" memo type field.
Or be able to put my own comments on my friends so I can make a note of their account details. (or if I think they arent good at paying back)
When the expense is added... to explicitly send a custom email out to the involved people with my bank account details
I understand that it can be hard trying to look at expenses from different granularities, ie "how much in total do I owe this person" vs "how much is owed for this expense" vs "how much for this group for this person"
Keep up the good work!

Storing bank account #s is unfortunately tricky, as there are some serious security concerns around bank #s here in the US and in some other countries. Still, we’d like to do it if possible. It’s not on our roadmap yet, but we’re definitely considering it for the future.

To be able to click settle up and money directly transfer from bank account rather than performing tasks separately

In Europe many people pay each other using direct bank transfers and I would like a place to add my bank account info for others to pay me.
This additional info could be used to upload images like QR code’s or just add the bank account info.
This could also be used for crypto currencies.

I’m currently using the name field to share my payment details. I would like a free form text field for this or any other detail that the user would like to share. It could be WhatsApp like status field too.

Great idea
Like some comments below
1) optional shared free text field (with suggestion: “eg Bank account, Venmo in US, PayPal, TWINT in Switzerland)
2) can have the info ONLY BE SHARED to relevant members when they owe another member an amount, to reduce security concerns. (Your competitor Tricount does this)

instead of having bank account no section, have a section to enter notes.bthe individual can enter any detail about him like bank acc no, preferred payment method etc. so security will not be a concern here.

Hi, great app! Just a suggestion,
I've read:
How do I connect Splitwise to my bank account? NO...And I unsderstand we don't use money here but what about a simple "temporal solution" like adding a bank account text input in "my account"?
Not having this here makes everyone in the groups send message via other app.

I wish you could add your bank account details so others who do not already have the details can grab them from Splitwise

I would like to send a Custom notification or be able to add my bank account information so I won't need to send another message indicating where to pay.

It'd be nice if I can add a bit of text to my profile so other people can see how they can transfer email to me. (e.g. if I prefer Paypal, or bank transfers).

User should be able to link up payment accounts (bank accounts or paypal). Splitwise may do a validation to verify the credibility of the payment account. On account setup the user may have the flexibility to settle their expenses automatically on a given day. Say for example all the 5 users in the group decide to automatically settle up on 29th of each month. Splitwise will do the same automatically, freeze the ledger for that month and then send auto notification to the users for verification. Users can verify and adjust anything on the next bill or out of splitwise (i.e. individually or personally)

Let people add their account number, so you have that information.
People put their account number after their name now so it's visual for friends. -

Ser possível cadastrar em seu perfil os dados bancários, pois assim os seus amigos conseguem visualizar para qual conta podem transferir o dinheiro que estão devendo.

Deveria ter uma opção para colocar as informações do banco que a pessoa quer receber. Pra não precisar ficar perguntando.

why can't you just allow the email template to be edited so that we can send the email and include bank details?

In the personal configuration could have the option to share the bank account information so the person could transfer the money easily
