Receipt Scanner

Turn a receipt into a reviewed transaction faster.

Scan a receipt, let UltiBudget pull out useful details, then review the merchant, amount, date, account, and transaction type before saving.

Review-first saving. Receipt records stay attached.

How It Works

Step through the flow.

Fast enough for daily use. Detailed enough for real records. Private enough to respect your financial life.

  1. Tap the camera button

    From Accounts, Transactions, or Receipts, tap the floating camera button when you are ready to scan.

  2. Capture the receipt

    The scanner captures the receipt image, then UltiBudget shows a Processing Receipt state while text recognition runs.

  3. Review the suggestions

    UltiBudget can prefill merchant, account, amount, date, and amount alternatives. You stay in control and can edit before saving.

  4. Save the transaction

    The scanned receipt can become a transaction with the receipt image attached, so the record and proof stay together.

  5. Manage receipts later

    Open the Receipts tab to browse receipt thumbnails, view receipts full-screen, share them, open the linked transaction, or delete records you no longer need.

Less typing

Receipt scanning helps fill in the boring parts while still letting you review the details before saving.

Proof stays nearby

The receipt image can stay attached to the transaction so the record and supporting document live together.

Receipts remain browseable

A receipt grid and full-screen viewer make older receipts easier to find when you need to check one later.
