Import from Splitwise
Folko can turn a Splitwise group export into a new cashbook, with its transactions, payments, people and balances. Folko is not affiliated with Splitwise.
How to do it
- In Splitwise, open the group, tap the gear (group settings) and choose Export as spreadsheet. Save the file.
- In Folko, start a new cashbook and tap Import a group from Splitwise.
- Tap Choose file and pick the export.
- Tell Folko Which one is you?, check the name and currency, and confirm any exchange rates.
- Review it and tap Import. Folko checks that everyone's balance matches the file's totals.
- Everyone else joins as someone not on Folko yet. Send each person their own join link so they can take over their balance.
Power-user tips
- Import the same group again later and only the new rows are added.
- The import needs a connection. The file must be a Splitwise group export of up to 5 MB.
- Refunds cannot be imported yet. If the file has one, Folko names the line.
The import follows your plan: members per cashbook (4 on Free, 30 on Plus, 100 on Max) and currencies per cashbook (3 on Free, unlimited on Plus and Max).
