Receipt keeper

Receipts forward themselves, stack up neatly, and surface the moment you need one.

You: forward any receipts to expenses@myco.com as they arrive
Pally: done. new receipts will auto-forward. i also found 23 from this month sitting in your inbox. forward all 23 too?
You: yes
Pally: sent. when you need one fast, text me a photo of the expense and i'll pull the matching receipt.

The routine

How it works

GmailOutlook

Receipts should file themselves. Tell Pally where they go and every new one is forwarded automatically. The backlog goes in one batch, and any receipt comes back when you need it.

  1. Give Pally the address that should get your receipts, and which inboxes to cover.
  2. If receipts have piled up, Pally finds the backlog and asks once before forwarding the batch.
  3. Need one later? Send a photo of the expense or name the merchant, and Pally sends back a link to the matching receipt.

Before you start

Common questions

Can receipt keeper use more than one inbox?

Yes. Connect Gmail, Outlook, or both and say which ones the rule covers.

What happens to receipts already in my inbox?

Pally gathers the backlog and asks once before forwarding it. New receipts follow the rule from then on.

How do I find a receipt later?

Send a photo of the expense or describe the purchase. Pally returns a link to the receipt; if the link has expired, ask for a fresh one.
