Track Shared Expenses Even If Your Co-Parent Doesn't Join
Start without your co-parent. They review and respond via secure browser link without downloading an app.
How Solo Mode Works in 5 Steps
- Initiating parent logs expense: Enter the expense category, receipt photo, and agreed split ratio.
- Request is sent: FairSplit generates a secure web payment link delivered via email or message.
- Recipient opens browser link: Your co-parent views full receipt details and split math in any browser without app installation.
- Recipient reviews & responds: They approve payment, request clarification, or submit a structured response.
- Activity is recorded: Every action and timestamp is logged continuously for your records and PDF exports.
Can one parent document expenses if the other parent will not join an app?
Yes. A parent can maintain a complete expense ledger independently and send individual reimbursement requests through secure browser links. The other parent can review the specific request without installing the full app. Solo Mode does not create consent or legal liability; it preserves the sender’s records and the recipient’s response history.
Practical review checklist
- Record each expense when it occurs instead of waiting for a monthly reconstruction.
- Send one clear request with the receipt and calculation attached.
- Use official state or tribal channels for enforcement questions.
The practical value of solo recordkeeping is continuity. Receipts, calculations, delivery timestamps, responses, and payment outcomes remain organized even when app adoption is uneven. If an existing support order needs enforcement or modification, USAGov directs parents to their state or tribal child support agency rather than a private recordkeeping product.
Primary sources and review standard
FairSplit separates sourced facts from product interpretation, discloses when it is the publisher or a compared product, and accepts evidence-backed corrections. Read the editorial policy and corrections process. Product guidance is not legal advice, and controlling orders and local law take priority.
