Small event organise karo. Every shared cost visible.

When several organisers make purchases, the final cost is often hidden across chats and payment apps. Karja creates one shared record for the organising team and a clear settlement after the event.

Can Karja replace event accounting software?

No. It is suited to informal shared organiser expenses, not vendor contracts, tax records or formal business bookkeeping.

Add the refund as an adjustment to the person who receives it, then review the updated group balance.
