How to Transfer Money from Splitwise to Bank Account?

Splitwise itself does not directly transfer money to bank accounts because it is primarily an expense-tracking app, not a payment processor. However, you can settle balances using Venmo, PayPal, or other payment services, and then transfer the money to your bank.

Steps to Transfer Money from Splitwise to a Bank Account

Method 1: Using Venmo (U.S. Only)

  1. Open Splitwise and go to the group or friend you owe money to.
  2. Tap “Settle Up” and choose Venmo as the payment method.
  3. Complete the payment through Venmo.
  4. Once the payment is in your Venmo balance, go to Venmo > Transfer to Bank and select Instant Transfer or Standard Transfer.

Method 2: Using PayPal (Global)

  1. Open Splitwise, go to your balance, and tap “Settle Up.”
  2. Choose PayPal as the payment method.
  3. Pay through PayPal using your linked bank or card.
  4. Once the money is in your PayPal balance, go to Wallet > Transfer to Bank and complete the withdrawal.

Method 3: Using Wise (International Transfers)

  1. Go to Splitwise and check how much you owe.
  2. Use Wise (formerly TransferWise) to send money to your friend’s bank account.
  3. Once the money is sent, manually mark the expense as “Settled” in Splitwise.

Alternative: Bank Transfers (Manual)

  • If your friend doesn’t use PayPal or Venmo, you can send money directly through your bank (Zelle, UPI, SEPA, etc.) and manually mark the expense as settled in Splitwise.

🔹 Note: Splitwise does not move money, it only helps track and split expenses. You need to use Venmo, PayPal, or bank transfers to move funds.
