Foreceipt

Foreceipt is an expense-tracking product for freelancers and small businesses, available on Android, iOS, and the web. It records paper receipts photographed by users and digital receipts forwarded by email, and can scan invoices to add income. Expense reports can be exported as Excel or PDF files for an accountant or tax filing. Users can choose defined business expense categories for the U.S. and Canada or create their own, and import bank transactions in bulk from PDF statements and CSV files. Recurring instructions can generate expense or income records when due, and data syncs between the mobile apps and web portal. The free plan is free and allows up to 100 receipts retained for up to 12 months, two team members, two PDF bank statements, and 10 PDF/Excel reports. The Individual plan is $5 a month; the Business plan is $12 a month and connects to QuickBooks Online. Foreceipt is available at foreceipt.com.

Foreceipt combines receipt capture, expense categorization, income records, and reporting across Android, iOS, and web. Check plan limits and QuickBooks availability when choosing a tier.

Foreceipt suits freelancers and small businesses that want to organize receipts, income, and expense reports across mobile and web. Businesses using QuickBooks Online may find the Business plan relevant.

Foreceipt is a receipt and transaction record-keeping service for freelancers and small businesses. It suits users who need one workflow across phone, browser, and accountant-ready exports. The free tier is useful for light activity; businesses with sustained volume will need a paid plan.

Overview

Foreceipt turns photographed paper receipts and emailed digital receipts into expense records, and it can scan invoices to add income. PDF bank statements and CSV files can be imported in bulk, while recurring expense or income instructions create records automatically when they come due.

Business expense categories are provided for the United States and Canada, with the option to customize them. Excel and PDF reports can be shared with an accountant or used for tax filing. OCR coverage is limited to merchant, date, and total, so it is best viewed as a focused receipt workflow rather than comprehensive line-item extraction.

Key features

Capture and organization

Camera capture handles paper receipts, while email forwarding covers digital purchases without requiring a new photograph. Defined regional tax categories reduce setup for U.S. and Canadian businesses, and custom categories accommodate a less standard chart of expenses.

Imports, recurring records, and reports

Bulk PDF-statement and CSV imports are useful when consolidating an existing account history. Recurring instructions suit predictable bills or income and reduce repeated entry. Excel and PDF exports provide practical handoff formats for tax preparation or an accountant, rather than locking records inside the app.

QuickBooks connection

The Business plan connects to QuickBooks Online, imports its chart of accounts, and can push receipts one at a time or in batches. That makes Business the relevant tier for an established QuickBooks workflow; the lower tiers do not provide this integration.

Pricing

Foreceipt uses a freemium model. The Free Plan costs nothing and retains up to 100 receipts for up to 12 months. It includes two team members, up to two PDF bank statements, and up to 10 PDF/Excel reports. Those limits fit occasional filing or a small personal-business archive, but a growing receipt history will outgrow both the storage and report quotas.

The Individual Plan is $5 a month, billed at 5 USD/mo; the listed $6.25/mo rate saves 20% (the pricing display presents both terms). It allows 200 receipts per month, keeps receipts for up to seven years, includes two team members, and removes the report limit. Email support is included, and subscription is available only from the web. This is the sensible step up for a freelancer who needs durable records and regular exports but not QuickBooks integration.

The Business Plan is $12 a month, billed at 12 USD/mo; the listed 15 USD/mo rate saves 20%. It includes unlimited receipts per month, seven-year retention, two team members, unlimited reports, QuickBooks Online integration, and email and phone support. Additional team members cost 72 USD per user per year. The plan earns its premium when receipt volume or accounting integration matters; a two-person operation with modest volume may not need it.

Platforms

Foreceipt runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with synchronization between its mobile app and web portal. iPhone in-app payments are processed through Apple iTunes, while web and Android payments use Stripe. Its privacy policy describes practical and reasonable protection measures and limits server access to personnel who require it for their duties.

Who it's for

Freelancers and small businesses are the stated audience. Choose it if you want camera and email receipt capture, bank-statement imports, recurring records, customizable U.S. or Canadian categories, and exportable reports in one cross-platform service. It is less suitable for users who need OCR beyond merchant, date, and total, or whose free usage will exceed 100 retained receipts and 10 reports.

Pros and cons

Verdict

Foreceipt is a strong fit for freelancers and small businesses that want synchronized mobile and web capture, bank imports, recurring records, and accountant-ready exports. Choose Individual for long retention and unlimited reports at a modest workload, or Business when unlimited receipts and QuickBooks are central. Look elsewhere if advanced receipt-field OCR or a very high-capacity free tier is your priority.
