How do you handle disputed transactions during game night?

Quick Answer

Check the transaction log. A digital ledger like PartyPot records every transaction with timestamps and amounts. When someone says "I already paid that" or "You owe me more," scroll back through the log to find the exact transaction. If there was a mistake, use the undo feature to reverse it.

Detailed Answer

The transaction log is your referee — it doesn't lie, forget, or take sides.

Common game night disputes:

1. "I already paid that!"

•Check the log → find the transaction → settled instantly
•If it's there: dispute resolved
•If it's not: payment hasn't been made

2. "You charged me the wrong amount!"

•Check the log → find the amount → compare
•Wrong amount? Undo and re-enter correctly
•Right amount? Show the player the log entry

3. "I never agreed to that bet!"

•Check the log → if it's recorded, it happened
•If it's not recorded, it wasn't entered (and probably shouldn't be enforced)

4. "The balance doesn't look right"

•Check the full transaction history for that player
•Every credit and debit listed chronologically
•Math errors impossible — app calculates automatically

5. "Someone cheated!"

•Review the complete log for suspicious entries
•Every transaction shows who initiated it and when
•Only the banker can make changes — and all changes are logged

How to handle disputes with PartyPot:

Step 1: Open transaction history

Every player can view the full log on their own device.

Step 2: Find the transaction in question

Scroll to the relevant timestamp. All transactions are chronological.

Step 3: Resolve

•Transaction exists and is correct → dispute resolved
•Transaction exists but is wrong → undo and re-enter
•Transaction doesn't exist → make the correct transaction now

Prevention is better than cure:

•Announce transactions — "Debiting $200 from Bob for rent"
•Players verify on their phones — Real-time balance visible
•Fix mistakes immediately — Don't wait until end of game
•Use the log — Reference it whenever a question arises
