    Splitwise has some basic support for this now, depending on what you’re looking for. We now support multiple email addresses for a single account, so you can more easily share one account with multiple people.

    However, we won’t automatically adjust how much you should owe as a “couple”. For example, if “Bob” adds an expense with “Sue and John’s Couple Account”, then the bill will be split 50/50 between those two Splitwise accounts. I can definitely see how it would be useful to automatically make Sue and John pay for 2 shares, but we’re unlikely to add that feature in the near future. For now, you can still work around this by manually using the “Split by shares” option when adding a bill, and assigning 2 shares to the relevant account.

    I agree with Hugo Vacher that the easy solution to this would be to have separate accounts for each person, but debts and payments to each are aggregated. I don't mind having separate accounts for my wife and me, but I don't want it to split out what I need to pay/receive from what she does, or we spend the whole time multiplying things. Combining things only at the finance/debt calculation stage solves the unequal shares point properly, as the bill can be shared as normal by the five people who attended, even if that translates at the debt-payment stage to 2/5 for each couple and 1/5 for the fifth person.
