Who paid how often

    The tally appears after the first spin.

    The pick uses a secure random generator. Names and tally stay in this browser.

    The quickest way to settle the bill

    Coffee with colleagues, pizza night, a round of drinks: someone has to pay, and nobody wants to argue about it. Who Pays? runs through the names like a roulette, slows down and stops on one person. The choice is made with your browser’s cryptographic random generator, so everyone has the same chance.

    Turn on “Don’t pick last time’s payer” so the same person isn’t unlucky twice in a row, and check the tally to see who has paid how often. Everything stays on your device.

    How to use

    1. Write the names of everyone at the table, one per line.
    2. Tap Who pays? and watch the names roll.
    3. The name that lights up pays this time.
    4. The tally keeps count across rounds; reset it whenever you like.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is it fair?

    Yes. Each person has the same chance; the result is chosen with the Web Crypto API before the animation starts. With “Don’t pick last time’s payer”, that person sits out the next draw only.

    Can it split the bill?

    No, it only picks one person. For taking turns in order, try the random order generator.

    Are the names saved?

    Only in this browser, together with the tally. Nothing is sent anywhere.
