|---|---|---|
| Category | Host-fronted group-tab splitting and payment follow-up | UK bank-based bill splitting |

| Core workflow | Host-fronted exact shares, private links, and follow-up. | Bill splitting inside the Monzo bank app. |
| Access | Guests need no TabChaser account. | UK-only and requires a Monzo account. |
| Reminder control | Automated chasing for balances still open. | Monzo can remind on the user's behalf, but the user triggers the action. |

| Payments | Uses the host's existing payment method and does not move funds. | Bank-native splitting for Monzo account holders. |
