Receipt Bank and Xero

Published in Business, Developers on 7 June 2011 by Ronan Quirke

Expenses are a hassle and they cost time and money to process. To help you with the paper war we’re expanding the choice of providers that integrate with Xero and sort this problem for you.

Our latest add-on Receipt Bank is a receipt and invoice processing service that gathers together your receipts and invoices, scans them, converts the receipts into useful data and then sends them directly into Xero.

Receipt Bank extracts all the relevant information, including what your accountant and the tax department needs. There’s also a bureau service available to accountants and bookkeepers.

Uploading receipts for processing anywhere in the world is easy via email, the web, or use the iPhone app to send receipts on the move. (If you’re in the UK you can also send by freepost).

Receipt Bank will process the first 50 receipts for Xero customers free. Find out more or watch this video to see how it works:

Hi Jerry,

Our digital plans are already available worldwide. These plans enable you to submit items to Receipt Bank by email, by iPhone or by direct upload.

Although the plans are currently only available to buy in GBP£ when you set up your Receipt Bank account you can set your default currency to Aus$ (or NZ$, US$, etc.) and then we will convert any foreign currencies back to this and send data into Xero in your chosen currency.

I hope that helps! If you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to contact us at support@receipt-bank.com.

Thanks,

Michael

I can see the data will come across. Does the image now come across so that the original invoice is captured in xero as well.

@Andrew – at the moment the Xero API which Receipt Bank uses does not support attaching images – this is one of the next features we will be releasing though.

Yes – Receipt Bank does now send the image across into Xero as well as the extracted data!

How long does it take Receipt Bank to respond to queries?

I’ve inquired about the partner service on Monday and still had no response apart from the automated one

@ Philip – so sorry about this delay – it’s definitely not typical. We aim to reply to all enquiries within 12 hours.

I can see my colleague Ella has been in touch – so I hope she’s been able to help? If there’s anything else I or the Team can do – just let me know.

Apologies again – and thanks for letting us know.
