Instant OCR reading
Point, shoot, done. Merchant, date and total are extracted in seconds, no typing.
A receipt scanner that reads paper so you don't have to
Point your camera, take a photo, done. Spenzaa's AI reads the merchant, date and amount off any paper receipt in seconds — then you can finally throw it away.
Free forever plan · No credit card required · iOS & Android
Cash purchases and small vendors don't show up in bank statements the way card payments do, which leaves a gap in most expense trackers. The traditional fix — keeping a growing pile of paper receipts — just moves the problem from your budget to your wallet.
Spenzaa's receipt scanner closes that gap without the paper. Photograph any receipt and the AI extracts the store name, date, amount and items in seconds, logging it exactly like a connected transaction — then automatically files the photo too, so you never need the physical copy again.
What makes it work
Photo saved automatically
The original receipt image is stored with the entry — useful for returns or warranty claims.
Auto-categorized
Scanned receipts get sorted into the right category the same way connected transactions do.
Business expense ready
Attach scanned receipts directly to SpenzaBook entries for business purchase records.
Itemized detail
Where supported, individual line items are captured, not just the total.
Cloud backed up
Every scanned receipt syncs to the cloud — safe even if you lose the paper or your phone.
Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the receipt scanner?
Modern OCR reads clean, legible receipts very reliably for merchant, date and total. Faded or handwritten receipts may need a quick manual check.
Do I still need to keep the paper receipt after scanning?
Generally no for expense tracking — the photo and extracted data are saved permanently. Keep the physical copy only if required for warranty or legal purposes.
Can I use this for business expense receipts?
Yes. Scanned receipts can be attached directly to SpenzaBook entries for supplier purchases or business expense records.
Is receipt scanning free?
Receipt scanning is available on the free plan with reasonable monthly limits; unlimited scanning is part of the Pro plan.
