How a month goes.

A statement arrives, the person who pays that bill posts it, and everyone else sees what they owe and by when. Paying happens wherever you already pay each other. Lejer keeps the record.

The monthly cycle

The examples use the sample household from the home page: Robin, Jordan, Casey and Morgan.

  1. The statement arrives

    Every kind of bill in your house (electric, gas, water, wifi) has an owner: the person whose name is on the account and who pays the provider. In a single-payer house that's one person for everything.

    Electric · Jordan
    Gas · Casey
    Water · Morgan
    Wifi · Robin

  2. They post it

    The amount, the due date, the statement date if your house uses it, and the provider's PDF. Any processing fee is added on top, and the total is split among everyone who shares bills, the owner included. The owner's own share is simply covered.

    $101.12 + $3.00 fee = $104.12
    $104.12 ÷ 4 = $26.03 each
    3 people owe Jordan $26.03

  3. Everyone on it gets an email

    The email waits ten minutes after posting, so a typo can be fixed before anyone sees it. Until someone has paid, the owner can still correct or delete the bill. If the email already went out, everyone gets one short note saying what changed.

    New bill: Electric, $26.03 your share

  4. People pay however they like

    Venmo, cash, a bank transfer, a burrito. Lejer never moves money and never asks for a card or a bank login. It only records that the money changed hands.

  5. The owner checks them off

    Each person's share gets its own checkbox. When the last one is checked, the bill reads Paid. If your house turns on thank-you receipts, the person who paid gets a short confirmation.

    Payment recorded: Electric

  6. Reminders cover the rest

    A heads-up a week before the due date, one reminder a day for the last three days, then one every three days while it's overdue. Your house sets the hour and both windows, and can turn reminders off.

    Due soon: your Electric share

Two ways to run a house

It's a setting, not a commitment. Switching changes who new bills go to and how the dashboard talks about them. Bills already posted stay exactly as they were.

One person pays everything

One roommate has every account and everyone pays them back. The dashboard just says what you owe and when it's due.

Each bill has its own owner

Electric is in one name and the wifi in another. Everyone owes on the bills they don't front, and the dashboard shows who owes whom across the house.

The details that save an argument

Shares are set when a bill is posted
Whoever splits bills at that moment is on it. A roommate who moves in next month never owes on this month's gas.
Statements stay on file
Each bill keeps the provider's PDF, and the lease and other paperwork can live in the house's documents.
Your own calendar feed
Subscribe once in Apple or Google Calendar, and every due date shows up, worded for you.
Invite by email
An admin adds roommates by address. They sign in with a code sent to that address, so there's no password to share.
Admins and members
Admins run the house. Members see everything and can post and check off the bills they own.
Spending over time
A chart of each bill month by month, and a CSV of the whole history whenever you want it.
Two looks for your house
A crisp bank-statement style with a dark mode, or a warm peach one with a striped awning. Your house picks.
More than one household
Moved out, or splitting a summer place too? One account can belong to several households and switch between them.
