Introducing Divvy: Split Bills Instantly with Solana

We're excited to introduce Divvy - a revolutionary way to split bills with friends using the power of Solana blockchain.

The Problem with Traditional Bill Splitting

We've all been there: dinner with friends, a shared vacation rental, or group activities. When the bill comes, the headache begins:

  • Venmo/PayPal fees eat into your money
  • International friends face high conversion rates
  • Settlement delays mean waiting days for your money
  • Manual calculations lead to errors and awkward conversations

Enter Divvy

Divvy solves these problems by leveraging Solana's blockchain technology:

Lightning-Fast Transactions

Solana processes transactions in under 400 milliseconds. When your friend pays their share, you see it instantly - no waiting for bank transfers or payment processing.

Near-Zero Fees

Traditional payment apps charge 1-3% per transaction. Solana transactions cost fractions of a cent. Split a $100 bill? You keep virtually all of it.

Smart Receipt Scanning

Take a photo of your receipt, and our AI automatically extracts items and prices. Assign items to friends with a tap, and everyone pays their fair share.

Restaurant Bill: $127.50
├── Alice: Pasta + Wine = $32.00
├── Bob: Steak + Beer = $45.50
└── Carol: Salad + Soda = $18.00
    Tax & Tip: Split evenly

QR Code Payments

Generate a unique QR code for your split. Friends scan it with any Solana wallet and pay instantly. No app download required for them.

How It Works

  1. Scan Your Bill - Use your camera to capture the receipt
  2. Add Friends - Enter wallet addresses or generate invite links
  3. Assign Items - Drag items to friends or split evenly
  4. Share QR Code - Friends scan and pay with any Solana wallet
  5. Done! - Funds arrive in milliseconds

Built on Solana

We chose Solana for several reasons:

  • Speed: 400ms finality vs 10+ minutes on other chains
  • Cost: $0.00025 average transaction fee
  • Ecosystem: Integration with existing wallets like Phantom, Solflare
  • Solana Pay: Native support for payment requests

What's Next

We're just getting started. Here's what's on our roadmap:

  • Token support - Split bills in USDC, USDT, or other SPL tokens
  • Group wallets - Create shared wallets for recurring expenses
  • Expense tracking - Built-in analytics for your spending
  • Mobile app - Native iOS and Android apps
