Stop Overpaying for Client Receipt Management
Collect, organize, and manage client documents — at a fraction of what Dext or AutoEntry charges.
SparkReceipt helps accountants and bookkeepers automate client receipt collection, document organization, and expense categorization with AI. Add yourself to any client account, or resell SparkReceipt at a 50% discount and turn document management into a profit center. Pricing starts at $2.78/user/month.
Why Accountants Switch to SparkReceipt
The document management tool that pays for itself
You became an accountant to advise clients — not to chase receipts, sort shoeboxes, and fight with overpriced software.
The problem: Tools like Dext start at $239/month for 10 clients. AutoEntry uses a confusing credit system. Hubdoc only works well with Xero. And every year, prices go up.
SparkReceipt is different. It’s built for accountants and bookkeepers who serve freelancers, solopreneurs, and small businesses — not Fortune 500 companies. AI handles the receipt scanning, data extraction, and expense categorization. You get clean, organized client data ready for your accounting software.
The best part? You can resell SparkReceipt to clients at a markup and profit from every account. No other receipt management tool offers this.
How It Works for Your Practice
From client chaos to organized data in three steps
Clients Scan Receipts — Or SparkReceipt Does It Automatically
Your clients snap photos of receipts with the SparkReceipt mobile app, upload documents in bulk, or do nothing at all — automatic email receipt scanning fetches invoices and digital receipts from their Google (Gmail), Microsoft (Outlook, Hotmail, Live), or any IMAP provider (Yahoo, iCloud, ProtonMail, and more) without any manual effort. Historical emails can also be scanned using date filters.
Every receipt is processed by AI in seconds: vendor name, date, amount, tax breakdown, currency, and line items are extracted automatically. No manual data entry. No 20-minute wait times. No chasing clients for missing receipts.
AI Categorizes, Matches, and Prepares Everything
SparkReceipt’s AI automatically categorizes every expense into tax-relevant categories — office supplies, travel, meals, software, professional services, and more. AI Automations let you write rules in plain English: “Tag all Amazon charges as Office Supplies” or “Flag any expense over $500 for review.”
Upload client bank statements and AI matches transactions to scanned receipts, flagging any charges missing documentation. What used to take hours of reconciliation now takes minutes.
Export Clean Data to Your Accounting Software
Generate expense reports in PDF, Excel, or CSV with one click — complete with category totals, tax summaries, and links to original receipt images. Sync directly with QuickBooks Online for zero double entry.
Access all your client accounts from one dashboard. View, download, and manage expense data across every client without juggling logins.
SparkReceipt vs. What You're Paying Now
See why accountants are switching from expensive alternatives
Dext / AutoEntry / Hubdoc
- Dext starts at $239/month for practice plans
- AutoEntry uses a confusing credit system — you pay per extraction
- Hubdoc is free only if you already pay for Xero subscriptions
- Per-client costs of $10–$25/month eat into your margins
- Complex onboarding — hours of setup per client
- Locked into one accounting ecosystem
- Clients need training to use the tools properly
- No reseller margin — pure cost for your practice
SparkReceipt
- $2.78/user/month with the accountant discount
- Simple per-seat pricing — no hidden fees
- Works with QuickBooks, Excel, CSV, PDF — not locked to one platform
- Up to 90% cost savings vs. Dext on per-client document management
- Clients set up in 2 minutes — scan a receipt and they're live
- Export to any accounting software you already use
- Automatic email receipt scanning — clients barely need to do anything
- 50% reseller discount — mark up and profit from every client
Turn Receipt Management Into a Revenue Stream
The only receipt tool with a built-in reseller model for accountants
Most accountants treat document management software as a cost. SparkReceipt turns it into revenue.
Here’s how it works:
- You buy SparkReceipt at the accountant price: $2.78/user/month ($33.33/year)
- You resell to clients at $8–$12/month (common market rate for receipt management)
- You keep the margin — $5+ profit per client per month
Example: An accountant with 30 clients reselling at $10/month earns $2,600+/year in recurring revenue — while giving clients a better tool at a lower price than Dext or AutoEntry.
Alternatively, include SparkReceipt in your monthly service package at no visible cost to clients — and reduce your own document collection overhead to near zero.
Your Clients Don't Need to Change How They Work
Automatic email receipt scanning does the heavy lifting
The biggest challenge with any document collection tool is getting clients to actually use it. Most accountants have tried sending clients a scanning app — only to get shoeboxes of receipts at year-end anyway.
SparkReceipt solves this with automatic email receipt scanning. Connect a client’s Google (Gmail), Microsoft (Outlook, Hotmail, Live), or any IMAP inbox, and SparkReceipt automatically finds and processes digital receipts — software subscriptions, online orders, travel bookings, and more. Historical emails can also be scanned with date filters to capture past receipts.
For paper receipts, the mobile app makes scanning as simple as taking a photo. AI extracts everything in seconds. No manual data entry from clients. No training required.
The result: receipts are collected continuously throughout the year instead of dumped on your desk at tax time.
