Budget before you book
Suggested daily costs by country and travel style. See cost per day at every stop — and know when you're over before you fly.
Compare routes without fear
Branch your trip to try a different route or budget. Merge back what you want — your original plan stays intact.
Couples & groups, done properly
Shared finances mode for partners who pool money. Fair settlement when only some travelers take a flight or join late.
Plan simply, travel on your phone
Real budget numbers in minutes — not hours in a spreadsheet. Install Belta on your home screen; log costs offline when you're abroad.

How it works

  1. 1

    Save & set a target

    Optional savings goal and trip budget before you add a single hotel.

  2. 2

    Plan with real numbers

    Destinations, daily rates, transport, and activities — planned and actual on the same ledger.

  3. 3

    Travel & settle

    Track spending on the go — even offline. See who owes whom, or hide splits when you're a couple on one account.

Your trip budget, in your pocket

Plan your full trip on phone or laptop — same budget, same ledger. When you're traveling, Belta installs like an app — log expenses offline, check your budget, and open your share link without hunting through email.

Not another route builder

Many route planners are great at sketching a multi-city trip fast. Belta is for when the hard part isn't where — it's whether you can afford it and what changes when you cut a country.
