PayBack
Split the check, not the friendship.
PayBack is a product by Ahmed Samy, specced, designed, built, tested and shipped end to end.
Dinner ends. One person pays the whole check. Everyone scans a QR, sees what they owe without signing up, and both sides tap to confirm. No money moves through it. It is a tracker between friends, not a fintech. One table, one hour, zero spreadsheets.
One QR, one hour, both sides confirm.
The payer types the total and the head count; everyone scans the code and sees what they owe without signing up. The friend taps I sent it, the payer taps Got it, and the bill settles once every seat has both. Groups keep a running tab for the crews that meet every week.
In numbers
- 2 taps to settle a share
- 1 h a QR code lives
- 6 digits, the whole sign-in
