- Accounts that run on: flat-share, couple, everyday spending.
- You want to send a payment request straight from the app.
- There is nothing to organise apart from the accounts.
When Orgaa fits better
- The expenses are part of an event: hen or stag do, trip, wedding, birthday.
- You would rather not have people install one app for the accounts and another for the rest.
- Only the organisers should see certain expenses, such as those of a surprise.
