Anyone who has been on a trip with friends, shared a flat, or organised a dinner knows the feeling. Someone pays for the fuel, someone else covers the hotel, a third person grabs the groceries — and by the end nobody quite remembers who owes what. The maths gets fuzzy, the reminders get uncomfortable, and sometimes a good friendship pays the price for a small amount of money.
Yaar Khata — literally, "friend's ledger" — was built to end that. It's a simple, friendly app that keeps a clear, shared record of group spending and, when it's time, tells everyone the fewest payments needed to settle up. No spreadsheets. No mental arithmetic at the table. No "I'll get you next time" that never happens.
Built for Pakistan first
Most expense-splitting apps are designed for somewhere else. Yaar Khata is built for how people here actually share money — in Rs / PKR, in the languages you speak, with the kinds of groups you form. It works in English, Urdu, Arabic, Hindi and Spanish, supports right-to-left layouts, and looks right whether you prefer a bright screen or a calm dark one.
Why we care about "fair"
Fairness isn't just splitting everything down the middle. Sometimes one person used more, one room was bigger, or one friend covered a bill they'll pay back later. That's why Yaar Khata lets you split equally, by exact amounts, or by weighted shares — and always shows the honest picture of who owes whom.
