“Lit the coals at six. We ate at ten.”
Two nights away, and a leaderboard.
A few hours from home: everyone votes every night, and the Wrapped lands on Sunday. And whoever turns up on Saturday only pays for their own night.

How it works on a weekend away
Before, during, after.
Before
The code in the group chat
You create the adventure with the dates, pick the game and expenses, and send the link: anyone arriving later joins whenever they like.
During
One vote a night, latecomers included
From 1 to 10, with the moment and a line. The supermarket run and the petrol get logged by whoever pays.
After
The Sunday Wrapped
On the drive home come the awards, the podium and the roasts. And the sums, already done.
Weekend costs
Arrive on Saturday, pay for one night.
For the accommodation, choose “By days”: everyone pays for the nights they were there. Other expenses are split among whoever was there. At the end Roastrip tells you who owes whom.

Weekend questions
Does someone arriving on Saturday pay for Friday too?
No: with the split by days, everyone pays for the nights they were there. Just tap the days of whoever arrives later.
Does everyone need the app?
Yes, everyone votes from their own phone. The link in the group chat is enough: whoever doesn't have the app goes through the store and lands in the right room.
How much does it cost the group?
Nothing: voting, getting the Wrapped and splitting expenses are free for everyone.
The barbecue chef is already among you.
