Onward enables you to split each expense with your co-parent without having to rely on unnecessary and emotionally-charged text conversations.
You can now propose how you would like to split a particular expense, share the details with your co-parent, and settle up via our verified ACH transfers so you have a neutral 3rd party validate that the payment took place or via our connections to apps such as Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, or CashApp.

We know how hard it can be to talk to your co-parent about money. Onward makes that process easier by enabling you to easily add expenses, share them with your co-parent, upload a receipt, and pay each other back right from the app.

Meet Jacklyn Rome
The daughter of divorced parents herself, Jacklyn Rome founded Onward in 2020 with the aim of helping divorced and separated parents more easily manage their shared expenses. Rome, who previously led new product launches at Uber and Blue Apron, said she built the app with the intent of not only alleviating headaches for the parents but also helping reduce family tension overall. As she can personally attest to, children also suffer greatly from being caught in the middle as their estranged parents bicker over money.
