Receipt scanning

Scan a receipt, split it by what people had

Tap the receipt button, take a photo or pick one, and SplitBank reads the merchant, date, items and total right on your phone. Then tap who had what, and tax and tip are shared in proportion.

Itemizing a $76.86 restaurant receipt in SplitBank, with each item assigned to You, Bob or Cara

Read on your phone

The receipt is read on your device, not sent to a scanning service. SplitBank checks that the items, tax and tip add up to the total, and tells you when something looks off so you can fix a number before saving.

Itemize in a few taps

Open Itemize to say who had what. It works with a group or with friends.

  • Everyone shares every item to start; tap people off the things they didn’t have.
  • Fix an item’s name or price if the photo was hard to read.
  • Tax, tip and fees are split in proportion to what each person had, down to the cent.

The photo stays with the expense

A small copy of the receipt is saved on the expense so anyone on it can check it later. Delete the expense and the photo goes with it.

FAQ

Receipt scanning: common questions

Yes. Like everything else in SplitBank, there’s no paid tier to unlock it.

Printed receipts photographed flat, in good light, with the whole receipt in the frame. E-receipts saved as a PDF work too. If a number is misread, edit it before you save.
