    Thanks for the suggestion! There is a very basic version of this feature on our website – click on a specific person in the left sidebar, then click the settings icon at the top of the right sidebar and choose “Consolidate debts with this person”. All your groups will be settled up, and the remaining balance will be transferred to a single non-group bill.

    We’ve also thought about a few other versions of this feature, but unfortunately it’s been really difficult to find a design that doesn’t confuse people. (Even the single-group “simplify debts” feature confuses a large percentage of people.) For now, we’ve decided to leave out any more complicated debt shuffling features, as the increase in confused/frustrated users seems to outweigh the benefits. Apologies for the trouble!

    With my friends, we have a group to share expenses when we go out together and we create special groups when we go on vacation. This is useful because we include only those who come and it makes adding expenses simpler. At the end of the day, we would like to transfer the resulting debts back to the main group. Currently our way of doing this is to record two separates cash payment, but this is quite annoying.
