What SparkReceipt is
SparkReceipt is a receipt-scanning and bookkeeping app for freelancers, self-employed people, and small businesses. It captures receipts and invoices from phones, email, or uploads, then uses AI to extract details and sort expenses into categories. It can scan Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft, and IMAP mailboxes for new receipts, or import older email receipts with date filters. The app also extracts transactions from bank statements and matches them to receipts; US users can connect a bank feed. Mileage tracking supports GPS or manual trip entry. SparkReceipt connects with accounting services including QuickBooks Online, Xero, FreshBooks, and Zoho Books, and exports expense reports as PDF, Excel, CSV, or ZIP. Pro costs $5.75 a month billed annually at $69.00, or $6.90/month with monthly billing, and includes 50 documents per month. Elite costs $10.75 a month billed annually at $129.00, or $12.90/month, with document scanning subject to fair use. Both include one user and free accountant access. The app does not create invoices, run payroll, or file tax returns.
