How we split cents

We only use whole cents. If the total doesn’t divide evenly, everyone gets the base amount and leftover cent(s) go to the first people in your participant list—one cent each.

Example: €10.00 split 3 ways

• •€10.00 = 1,000 cents
• •1,000 ÷ 3 → €3.33 each, with 1 cent left over
• •Shares: €3.34 · €3.33 · €3.33 (adds up to exactly €10.00)

The extra cent goes to the first person in the list order used for that split (Split with on a bill, or Who reimburses on a buy-back). Any further leftover cents go to the second person, then the third, and so on—same rule every time.

Equal split: each person gets floor(total ÷ people). Remainder cents (0 to people−1) are distributed one at a time from the start of that list.

Same rule in the fairness engine and in the HabiMate app when you add expenses.
