Receipt Scanner & Expense Tracker for Gig Workers
Track mileage, scan receipts, and maximize tax deductions for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and Instacart.
Gig workers leave thousands in tax deductions on the table every year — mostly from untracked mileage and lost receipts. SparkReceipt's AI captures every gas receipt, parking charge, and vehicle expense automatically. Combined with mileage tracking, you get a complete picture of your deductions in one app.

Mileage and expenses in one app — not two
Track Every Deductible Mile and Receipt
Most gig workers use one app for mileage and another for receipts — then struggle to combine everything at tax time. SparkReceipt brings mileage and expense tracking together in a single app. Every gas receipt, oil change, car wash, and parking charge is captured alongside your mileage logs, giving you one complete record of your driving costs.
Track expenses across every platform you work on
One App for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and More
Many gig workers drive for multiple platforms in the same week — or even the same day. SparkReceipt lets you organize expenses across all your gig work without switching between apps. Tag receipts by platform, track costs per vehicle, and see exactly how much each gig is costing you in real time.
How It Works for Gig Workers
Capture Receipts Between Rides and Deliveries
Snap a photo of any gas station receipt, parking ticket, or car wash bill right from the driver's seat. SparkReceipt's AI extracts the vendor, amount, date, and category in seconds — even from crumpled or faded receipts.
AI Categorizes Your Gig Expenses Automatically
Every receipt is automatically sorted into tax-relevant categories — fuel, vehicle maintenance, parking, tolls, phone, supplies. No manual data entry, no spreadsheets, no guessing which category to use.
Generate Tax-Ready Reports for Your Accountant
One click generates a complete expense report with totals, category breakdowns, and attached receipt images. Export to PDF, Excel, or CSV. Share with your accountant or use it to file your own Schedule C.

Frequently Asked Questions
Rideshare drivers can deduct mileage (76¢ per mile from July 1, 2026; 72.5¢ before), gas, vehicle maintenance, car washes, parking fees, tolls, phone bills (business portion), supplies like phone mounts and chargers, and health insurance premiums if self-employed. SparkReceipt helps you capture and categorize all of them.
Yes. SparkReceipt combines mileage tracking and receipt scanning in a single app. You get one complete record of all your driving costs — mileage logs alongside fuel receipts, maintenance bills, and every other vehicle expense.
No. If you claim the IRS standard mileage rate (76¢ per mile from July 1, 2026; 72.5¢ before), you cannot also deduct gas, oil, insurance, or repairs separately — those costs are already included in the rate. However, you can still deduct parking fees and tolls on top of the mileage rate. SparkReceipt helps you track both so you can choose whichever method saves you more.
Yes. Whether you drive for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart, Grubhub, or any other platform, SparkReceipt tracks all your expenses in one place. Tag receipts by platform to see exactly how much each gig costs you.

Doing it by hand
Shoebox + spreadsheet
60+ hours a year
Flattening, reading and typing each receipt into a spreadsheet, filing the paper, matching it to the bank statement, and hunting for the ones that went missing.
$1,000+ for the cleanup
What a bookkeeper charges to turn a year of shoebox records into books a return can be filed from, before the return itself.
Deductions you can't prove
A faded thermal receipt or a lost email is an expense you pay for twice: once at the counter, once at tax time.
Total per year
Your evenings, a cleanup bill, and the deductions you couldn't prove.
Basis: about 40 receipts a month at six minutes each by hand, plus a weekend reconstructing the year before the return. Bookkeeper rates and cleanup fees from NerdWallet's 2026 bookkeeping price guide (freelance average $43 per hour; cleanup from $1,000).
