The Trip Group Chat You Already Have
Every shared trip has one: the group chat where the plans get made and the photos get posted. Spentrip's Telegram bot lives in it. Add @spentrip_bot, link the chat to a trip, and every person in it can log what they paid for — without downloading anything or creating an account.
The alternative is asking four people to install an app, sign up, and remember to use it. That conversation is why shared-expense tracking usually ends as a spreadsheet nobody updates.
What Makes It Different
Group Chats
One /link from the trip owner and the whole group can log expenses. Members need no account of their own.
Receipt Links
Paste a URL to a booking confirmation and the bot fetches the page. Useful for the receipts that never arrive as a file.
Five Ways In
Type it, photograph it, forward a PDF, paste a link, or say it out loud.
Everywhere Telegram Runs
Phone, tablet, desktop, or web — the bot is the same conversation on all of them.
Getting Started
For yourself: message @spentrip_bot and start logging, or open Settings → Telegram in the app, send /login, and paste the code to link an account you already have.
For a group: add the bot to the chat and have the trip owner send /link. The Telegram help article walks through both, plus the commands and hashtag syntax.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can everyone in a group chat log expenses?
Yes. Once the trip owner links the group with /link, any member can add expenses with /add — no Spentrip account and no install required. The owner's subscription covers the whole group.
Do I need the Spentrip app to use the Telegram bot?
No. You can start a chat with @spentrip_bot and log expenses before installing anything. Send /signup when you're ready and everything you've already logged comes with you.
What can I send the bot?
Free-form text, a receipt photo, a PDF invoice, a link to an online receipt, or a voice message. Five ways in, all producing the same kind of expense.
How is this different from the WhatsApp bot?
Telegram adds group chats and receipt links. If several people are paying for things on the same trip, Telegram is the one you want.
