Halfway - Fair budgeting for couples with different incomes

by
When you earn different amounts, 50/50 isn't fair. Halfway splits expenses based on income—automatically. Set your ratio once (60/40, 70/30, etc.), and every shared expense divides fairly. No spreadsheets, no resentment, just math that makes sense.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Shashank, and I built Halfway because my wife and I kept fighting about money. **The problem:** We earn different amounts ($95k vs $60k). Every budgeting app assumed we'd split 50/50. But 50/50 isn't fair when you earn different amounts. It means one person pays 30% of their income on rent while the other pays 15%. One person has savings, the other is stretched thin. We tried Splitwise. Had to manually calculate 60/40 for every expense. Groceries? Calculator. Dinner? Calculator. Rent? Calculator. So I built Halfway. **How it works:** 1. Set your incomes once → We calculate your fair ratio 2. Add expenses → They split automatically (60/40, 70/30, whatever's fair) 3. See who owes what → Real-time balance 4. Settle up → One tap **Key features:** ✓ Income-based splits (automatic, set once) ✓ Shared & personal budgets (budget together, spend independently) ✓ Subscription tracking (see all recurring bills) ✓ Real-time balance (who owes what, down to the dollar) ✓ Transaction history (every expense categorized) ✓ Free forever (premium adds bank syncing + financial advisor sessions) **Who it's for:** Couples who earn different amounts and want fairness, not 50/50. **What we're building next:** → Receipt scanning → Venmo/Zelle integration → Shared financial goals 1,000+ couples are already using it. We're early, but it solves the core problem: fair expense splitting. Try it free. Happy to answer questions! 🙏 — Shashank
