    Hmm…interesting! I’ll pass on this feedback – I haven’t heard much about people adding transactions on Splitwise that aren’t actually IOUs or payments.

    For now, your best bet is probably to edit your rent expense, so that each flatmate’s share reflects the actual amount they’ve been paying (including the gift). So if everyone pays $500/mo normally, and flatmate #1 is paying an extra $100 on flatmate #2’s behalf, you could edit the bill to say that flatmate #1’s share is $600 and flatmate #2’s share is $400. Then, when each person pays their adjusted share, there should be no remaining debt between the two of them. Hope that helps for the time being!

    I understand that many people use this as a tool to collect on a debt or pay a debt. But a more wholistic approach would be to include the ability to indicate something as a gift to the group or individual. For example, I am currently owed $4.33. I do not care to collect on $4.33- I wish there was a button to just "forgive" it. Or to be included on a group, but only be notified if I owe money not if I am due money.
