Meta has announce the arrival of a new Split Payments feature in Facebook Messenger. This feature will let you calculate and split expenses with others right from Facebook Messenger. This feature essentially looks to bring an easier method to share the cost of bills and expenses.
Using this new Split Payment feature, Facebook Messenger users will be able to split bills evenly or modify the contribution for each individual, including their own.
The Meta took to its blog post to announce the new Split Payment feature in Facebook Messenger.
The rollout will begin early next week.
It will help users share the cost of bills, expenses, and payments.
This feature is especially useful for those who share an apartment and need to split the monthly rent and other expenses with their mates.
Users can add the number of people the expense needs to be divide with and, by default, the amount entered will be divide in equal parts.
A user can also modify each person’s contribution including their own.
To use Split Payments, click the Get Start button in a group chat or the Payments Hub in Messenger.
Users can modify the contribution in the Split Payments option and send a notification to all the users who need to make payments.
After entering a personalise message and confirming your Facebook Pay details, the request will be sent and viewable in the group chat thread.
When someone has made the payment, you can mark their transaction as ‘completed’.
The Split Payment feature will automatically take into account your share as well and calculate the amount owed accordingly.
