How can I keep track of my receipts?
Now at Kontist, there are so many possible solutions to help you manage your business receipts. With Kontist, you can easily digitise your receipts and invoices directly on the Kontist app or on your computer and manage them in real time - even on the go. How do you upload them? That's entirely up to you.
Here are the different ways you could share your receipts and invoices with us:
Email Forwarding:
If you receive invoices and receipts via e-mail, simply forward the emails with the attachment to receipts@kontist.com. With Email Forwarding, it is possible to send multiple invoices and receipts in one e-mail. With our intelligent OCR text recognition, your receipts are automatically matched to its corresponding transactions. If the match is successful, you will receive a push notification. Accepted file types are PDF, PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIFF.
Better yet, create an email folder where you collect all your digital invoices and receipts. Then set up an automatic forwarding in your email settings that takes effect if the email has an attachment and the subject contains "Invoice" or "Receipt." This means you will not need to do anything to get your invoices and receipts to us!

Bulk Drag & Drop
Dealing with multiple invoice and receipts in your files or photo gallery? Just drag and drop all files in one go. We’ll do the rest to match it to your transactions! This feature is available on both the mobile and web app.
Note that Drag & Drop must only be used for transactions made through your Kontist account. Receipts for transactions made outside Kontist must not be uploaded via Drag & Drop. For long-term customers, Google Drive will no longer function as a viable submission portal for non-Kontist account transactions.
Manual Receipt Matching
If your receipts could not be matched automatically via OCT text recognition, you will have the opportunity to match them manually in the web app. No need to go through each transaction with no invoice or receipt one by one!

With one click, you can also share your receipts directly with the Kontist app and assign them to a transaction.

On the web app: On the Kontist web app, select the transaction to which you want to assign the receipt and click the plus sign (+) under "Receipt."
With the Kontist mobile app: Select the transaction to which you want to assign the receipt and click on the plus sign (+) under "Receipt." Now you can take a photo of the receipt with your smartphone or select a photo/PDF and upload it.
