Pay By Group

Pay By Group is an checkout option on travel and retail e-commerce sites that lets friends and families split the cost and pay together.

Based in San Francisco, PayByGroup is a group payments platform that facilitates money collections from friends, family, and others. It helps its users group fund vacation rentals, concert tickets, sporting events, and other group activities. The platform enables the organizer of a group to decide the minimum number of people that must pay in order for a group event to happen. When the minimum number has paid in, PayByGroup charges the amount from each member’s credit card and collects the funds. It also allows merchants to track, manage, and approve purchases using an administrative dashboard. The platform was launched in 2012.
