Receipts and cash spend

A photo or PDF, matched to the bank transaction, with room for a tip. Undo if it picked the wrong row.

Where to find it

On a phone, Quick add → Snap a receipt. You can also attach a receipt from the transaction. Receipt storage has to be switched on. If it is not, Quick add says Receipt storage isn’t switched on yet.

  1. Press Snap a receipt, or attach a file from the transaction. A photo or a PDF both work.
  2. When AI extras is on, Jarful reads the shop, the total, the date and the items. Check them. A reading can be wrong.
  3. It matches on amount and date, and it allows for a tip or a surcharge, so the bank row does not have to equal the receipt to the cent.
  4. If the payment is not in the bank yet, the receipt waits and is checked again after the next import or sync. Quick add lists those under Receipts waiting to match.
  5. Paid cash? Add transaction, or Not here — add as cash on the attach sheet. The receipt can hang on that cash row.
  6. If it matched the wrong payment, press Undo on the confirmation.

The file is stored for the household. People you invite can see a receipt that is already attached, including someone who is view only. They cannot attach a new one.

What this does not do

A receipt is not a payment. Reading it sends the image to Anthropic only when you use that feature. Details are in the privacy policy. AI extras have a fair-use limit. Jarful does not publish a number for that limit.
