How to forward email receipts (2-minute walkthrough)


Quick Overview

  • Each user has a personal Foreceipt email address uniquely generated for submitting email receipts.

  • Forward your receipt to that email, and it instantly appears in your app under Recent → Unverified.

  • Review, edit if needed, and save to complete the process.


Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Access Your Unique Email Address

    • Open the Foreceipt mobile app.

    • Tap the menu icon in the top-left corner to open the side menu.

    • Select “Email Receipts” to reveal your personal forwarding address.

  2. Forward Your Receipt
    Send the email containing your receipt—PDF or image—to that personal Foreceipt email address.

  3. Receipt Auto-Processing
    Your receipt is automatically turned into a new entry that appears in Recent → Unverified within the app. The system extracts details like date, merchant, and amount.

  4. Review and Confirm
    Tap the new receipt in the Unverified list to review and make edits if necessary. Finally, save to finalize it as a verified expense in your Foreceipt records.
