Automated Reminders, Without the Awkwardness

Friendly nudges that actually get bills paid

Chasing people for money is awkward. The right reminder, at the right time, in the right tone, makes it a whole lot easier. Splitify handles the timing and the message so you can keep things friendly and still get paid.

Why reminders feel awkward (and how we help)

Most of us don't want to nag. We also don't want to be left holding the bill. Splitify strikes the balance by keeping messages short, specific, and respectful—so your relationships stay front and center.

Smart, spaced timing

We send gentle nudges close to the due date, with sensible spacing so no one feels spammed. If someone pays, reminders stop immediately. Need to pause for a week? You can snooze a request with one click.

Clear, actionable messages

Every reminder includes the exact amount due, the due date, and a secure payment link. No guesswork, no searching through old messages. People can pay from their phone in seconds.

Your voice, not a robot

Add a short note when you send the request ("Hey! Internet bill for March—thanks!"). That tone carries through to reminders so it feels like you, just automated.

Channels that respect attention

We primarily use email for reminders and reserve SMS for urgent, time-sensitive nudges when appropriate. Participants can opt out or change their preferences at any time.

Example reminder copy

  • Subject: Quick nudge about your split
  • Body: "Hi Sam—just a reminder that $38.50 for Wi‑Fi is due on Friday. Pay securely here: [link]. Thanks again!"

Full control when you need it

Pause reminders for a single person, skip the next reminder, or change the due date if plans change. You stay in control while Splitify handles the follow‑through.

Best practices we've learned

  • Set clear due dates up front (e.g., "by Friday").
  • Add a friendly note on the first send to set the tone.
  • Keep amounts precise and visible in the message.
  • Use reminders sparingly; trust the system to do the nudging.

Reminders shouldn't strain relationships. They should remove friction. With Splitify, they do.
