Use cases

Group bookings and orders should not depend on one person paying for everyone.

Online checkouts are usually built for one customer, one card, and one confirmation email. PayShare lets businesses keep their existing checkout while allowing each person to pay their own share.

Where PayShare fits

PayShare is built for booking and ordering flows — not normal in-person counter payments.

In person, groups can split at the counter. Online, most checkouts still force one person to pay for everyone.

When a group is standing at a desk, till, or POS, staff can often split the payment manually. But online, the checkout usually only accepts one payer. That creates abandoned bookings, awkward IOUs, and pressure on one person to front the full cost.

PayShare adds group payment to bookings and orders where the checkout was only designed for one payer.

PayShare is built for online bookings and orders where the checkout only allows one payer, but the purchase belongs to a group.
