Head Courier: How to pay a substitute (and save your nerves)

When you share an invoice Truster, we automatically take care of taxes and payments for both parties.

Here are instructions on how to get the job done with just a couple of clicks.

1. How to split the bill (Do this as soon as the bill arrives)

When you receive notification of a new invoice, proceed as follows:

1. Open Truster and select the invoice in question.
2. Press the button "Share invoice with another user."
3. Select the correct substitute from the list. (Can't see the substitute? See point 2).
4. Enter the percentage (%) you want to give to the substitute.
5. Check the figures carefully and confirm.

⚠️ Please note: Once you click "Confirm," the split is final. If the split is incorrect, correcting it will require manual work in the accounting system, for which we will charge separately. So do it right the first time and save money!

2. Can't find a substitute on the list?

If you are sharing your bill with a substitute for the first time, you must first link your accounts. Ask the substitute to do the following:

1. Open Truster.
2. Go to the "Split bill" menu .
3. Click "Allow sharing of information."
4. Copy the code that appears on the screen and send it to you (e.g., by message).

When you enter this code into your own application, the substitute will appear on the list and you can share the invoice. You only need to do this once.

3. HetiPalkka – Share first, then withdraw

Do you want the money deposited into your account immediately? The order is critical.

1. First, distribute the invoice. The system needs to know who gets what before money can be moved.
2. Only then should you request HetiPalkka. Once the distribution has been made, both you and your substitute can withdraw your respective shares as HetiPalkka in the normal way. Click on the invoice and select Hetipalkka.

💡 Pro: Do you have more than one substitute?

If there are several substitutes on the same invoice, our system requires a specific order of precedence to ensure that the math adds up.

Rule: Start distributing from the substitute with the smaller percentage.

• Example: Substitute A receives 20% and Substitute B receives 30%.
• Action: First distribute 20% (Deputy A). Only then distribute 30% (Deputy B).
