Why contributors pay the fee
Squared is free for organizers because the organizer is already doing the hard part: coordinating the group. Contributors pay a small fee when they check out so the group can collect money cleanly, track who has paid, and avoid awkward chasing.
Everyone sees who's paid
The shared pool makes payment status clear without messy group-chat updates.
Less chasing
Reminders and paid/pending tracking help organizers avoid awkward follow-ups.
Cleaner collections
One link, one pool, one place for the group to settle up.
