Scan Business Receipts from WhatsApp or iMessage
A business receipt scanner turns a phone photo or PDF into a record you can review. Receiptor uses configured WhatsApp and iMessage channels, so you can send receipt images and PDFs from familiar messaging apps, keep the original evidence, and prepare the result for bookkeeping.

How mobile scanning works
Send the receipt from a messaging app your team already uses.
The mobile workflow uses a configured channel without installing a separate Receiptor scanner app. Each inbound file enters the same reviewable document workflow as email and manual uploads.
2
Send the receipt
Take a clear photo or attach an existing file, then send the receipt image or PDF to the configured number.
3
Extract and keep the evidence
Receiptor processes the inbound file, extracts available receipt details, and keeps the source document with the record.
4
Review and route
Review the result, correct details when needed, then include it in a file export or configured accounting workflow.
Choose the right category
Built for business records, not receipt rewards.
The phrase receipt scanner app can describe several different products. Receiptor is for collecting and preparing business documents for bookkeeping.
Business receipt scanner
Captures financial documents for recordkeeping, extraction, review, and bookkeeping. This is the workflow Receiptor serves.
Cashback or rewards app
Accepts consumer purchase data in exchange for points, rebates, or offers. Receiptor is not a cashback or rewards app.
General document scanner
Creates a clean image or PDF from many document types. Receiptor focuses on receipts, invoices, and their accounting details.
Better source images
Make the receipt easier to read and review.
Extraction cannot recover detail that is cropped, hidden by glare, or absent from the source. A careful capture gives both the software and the reviewer better evidence.
- Include the full receipt, from merchant header through the total
- Use even lighting and avoid glare across thermal paper
- Keep text in focus and large enough to read
- Send the original PDF when the merchant supplied one
- Review faded, folded, damaged, or handwritten documents carefully
- Check the extracted record before using it in your books
Manage every receipt source
Combine mobile scanning with email collection, historical scans, and manual uploads.

Business receipt scanning, explained.
Does Receiptor have a receipt scanner app?
Receiptor provides a mobile receipt-scanning workflow through configured WhatsApp and iMessage channels. You send receipt images and PDFs from a familiar messaging app without installing a separate Receiptor scanner app.
What files can I send through a mobile scanner?
The mobile scanner workflow processes inbound receipt images and PDFs. Extraction quality depends on the document, so use a clear, complete image and review the resulting record.
Can I scan receipts for bookkeeping rather than rewards?
Yes. Receiptor is built for business financial-document management. It extracts and organizes receipt records for review and bookkeeping; it is not a cashback or rewards app.
Can I upload a receipt without WhatsApp or iMessage?
Yes. You can upload documents directly in Receiptor. You can also connect email sources when receipts already arrive through Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365, or IMAP.
What happens after I scan a receipt?
Receiptor processes the file, extracts the available document details, and keeps the source with the record. You can review and correct the result, then export it as a file or use a configured accounting integration.
Can scanned receipts go to Xero or QuickBooks?
Yes, with an eligible plan and configured integration. Review the document and accounting context first, then use Receiptor's match-first Xero or QuickBooks workflow to attach the evidence or create the appropriate record.
Can I use mobile scanners for several businesses?
Yes. Receiptor can assign documents to configured legal entities and apply the relevant chart of accounts and accounting destination. Review an uncertain entity match before export.
