How to separate group expenses in Telegram

Keep a trip, event or project separate inside one Telegram group chat, so a weekend away never gets mixed into your regular shared spending.

1

Create a context with /context

Use the /context command in your group chat to create a new context. Give it a descriptive name:

Bali Trip
Monthly Groceries
Office Lunch Fund

2

Switch between contexts

Use /context to view all your contexts and switch the active one. All new expenses will be logged under whichever context is currently active. You can switch back and forth anytime.

3

View expenses per context

Use /stats to see spending breakdowns for the active context. Each context keeps its own separate expense history, so you can track multiple trips or projects independently within the same group.

Pro tip:

Close a context when a trip or project ends. All the history is preserved and you can still view past stats, but it won't accept new expenses.
