Terms of use
The short version: use Tripmates to plan trips and split costs with people you know, and be decent about it.
The service
Tripmates helps groups plan trips and work out who owes what. It’s a calculator and a shared notebook. It is not a bank, a payment service or a money transmitter, and it never holds or moves money.
Your part
- Only invite people you’re actually travelling or sharing costs with.
- Keep the invite link to your group. Anyone with it can join the trip.
- Don’t upload anything illegal, or anything you don’t have the right to share.
- Double-check amounts before you pay someone. The math is careful, but it can only work with what the group entered.
Paid extras
The Trip Pass ($5.99, one trip) and Annual plan ($29.99 a year) unlock extra receipt scans, recap themes and spreadsheet export. Payments are processed by Stripe. During the preview, checkout runs in test mode and no real charges are made.
Preview
Tripmates is in early preview. Features may change, and we may need to reset data while we’re building. We’ll try hard not to.
Liability
Tripmates is provided as is. We aren’t responsible for disagreements about who owes what, payments made outside the app, or plans that change. We do want to hear about bugs.
These terms cover gotripmates.com and every trip link on it.
