Expenses

Every shared cost, tracked and settled.

Log a shared expense with a receipt, set the split, and let your coparent approve it before anything’s owed — then settle up with a clear running balance. Or track it all solo. It’s a shared ledger of who owes whom, not another payment app with transaction fees.

Why coparents track expenses on Kidtime

Custom categories

Organize expenses by medical, school, activities, or clothing — or make your own categories. Then see spending broken down by category over time.

Receipts and proof of payment

Attach a receipt photo when you log the expense, and a proof-of-payment photo when it’s settled. The whole paper trail lives with the charge, not buried in a camera roll.

Track solo or with a coparent

Run the full shared flow — your coparent approves each expense, then confirms payment — or self-record what you’re owed and mark it paid back yourself, even if they’re not on the app.

Settle up without fees

Kidtime keeps a clear running balance of who owes whom. There’s no payment rail and no per-transaction cut — unlike apps that charge to move money.

How it works

Step 1

Log it

Add an expense with amount, category, description, and a receipt photo. Set the split — 50/50 or any custom percentage, and the app does the math.

Step 2

Agree on it

Send it to your coparent to approve or refuse — nothing’s owed until you both agree. Tracking on your own? Self-record it instead.

Step 3

Settle up

Approved expenses roll into a settlement. Mark it paid, attach a proof-of-payment photo, and the running balance updates for both of you.

Kidtime tracks and settles shared costs with no transaction fees or per-payment cut — unlike apps with a built-in payment rail. You pay each other however you already do.

Keep every shared cost straight

Download Kidtime to log expenses, split them fairly, and settle up with a clear record — solo or with your coparent.

Frequently asked questions

Does Kidtime process payments between coparents?

No. Kidtime is a shared ledger, not a payment app — there's no card processing, money transfer, or per-transaction fee. You track and settle shared costs in the app and pay each other however you already do.

Can I track expenses without my coparent?

Yes. Self-record expenses and mark them paid back yourself, with no coparent participation required — useful when the other parent isn't on the app or won't engage.

Can I attach receipts and proof of payment?

Yes. Attach a receipt photo when you log an expense and a proof-of-payment photo when you settle up, so the documentation lives with the charge.

Can I set a custom split?

Yes. Define what percentage each parent owes on any expense — 50/50 or any custom split — and Kidtime does the math.

Can I organize expenses by category?

Yes. Use categories like medical, school, activities, and clothing, or create your own, then see spending broken down by category over time.
