You pick up the check. We make sure you're paid back.

Sound familiar?

The night ends. The chasing begins.

🧾
The check lands in front of you.
You already knew you'd be covering it. Dinner, drinks, the Uber back — somehow always your card.
✓✓
"Read." No reply.
Your request is being ignored in real time. The group chat has never been this quiet.
📆
"I'll get you next time."
He said this in March. There is no "next time" anywhere on the calendar.
🧮
You're doing the math in your head — and you're already wrong.
Split the tax, remember who had the extra round, subtract the friend who "only had a bite." Dinner hasn't even ended.
💸
Maybe you get it back. Maybe.
A little here, a little never. You stop counting because counting starts to feel petty.
Every night out

You fronted it. You got it all back.

Real tabs, real nights. You put it on your card once — Depler brings every share home.

Three steps. No awkward conversations.

Scan. Claim. Get paid back.

1

Open a tab and scan the receipt.

You're paying — own it. Open a tab, point your camera at the receipt, and Depler reads every item and price in a few seconds.

2

Everyone claims their own food.

Your group opens the tab and taps what they ate. No math, no guessing, no negotiation — each person's share adds itself up.

3

The money moves on its own.

Depler charges each person's linked bank and pays it straight to you. Nothing to text, nothing to follow up on. You just eat.

Why Depler

Not a reminder app. A collection app.

With Depler
  • You pay

  • They claim their food
  • The money lands in your account
  • Done.

The difference? Splitwise and Venmo track who owes you.
Depler moves the money.

No payment requests to send. No "settle up" tab that never settles. Transfers run bank-to-bank over ACH — Depler never holds your money.

Why I built this
"I was the friend who always covered the table. I'd front $200 for a birthday dinner and spend the next two weeks sending Venmo requests into the void. So I built the app that just collects the money for me. Now the check is handled before I've left the parking lot."

Straight answers

The questions you'd actually ask.

Yes. Depler never holds your money. Transfers run bank-to-bank over ACH through our regulated payments partner (Stripe). We don't store card numbers, and you link your bank through a secure connection — not by typing account details into the app.

A small fee when Depler collects for you — about 3.5% of your share, capped at $3, shown clearly before anyone confirms. Paying your share in cash instead? That's $0. No subscriptions, no ads, no selling your data.

For now, yes — everyone splitting a tab has Depler and links their bank once (it takes a minute, and it's a one-time thing). After that, claiming their items is a few taps. Paying without downloading is something we're building next.

No. Those apps track who owes you and leave the collecting to you — the requests, the reminders, the waiting. Depler collects. Once your group claims their items, the money moves to your account automatically. That's the whole point.

Depler is in early access on iOS, rolling out to the waitlist in batches. Join the list and invite friends to move up — the more of your group that's in, the sooner splitting actually works for you. Android is coming.

Stop waiting to get paid back.

Open a tab tonight. Let the money find its own way home.
