How to forward e-receipts from your email

💡 Pro tip

Save your personal SparkReceipt forwarding address to your email contacts. Most email clients will then automatically suggest the address when you forward receipts, making the process faster and easier.

Each SparkReceipt workspace has a unique email address that you can use to forward e-receipts.

You can find your personal forwarding address in the app under Main menu → Email documents. We recommend saving this address to your email contacts so it’s easy to find when forwarding receipts later.

When you forward an e-receipt to this address, SparkReceipt will automatically scan and add it to your account. Both email attachments and receipts embedded directly in the email body are supported.

💡 Pro tip
Save your personal SparkReceipt forwarding address to your email contacts. Most email clients will then automatically suggest the address when you forward receipts, making the process faster and easier.

When you receive an e-receipt in your inbox:

SparkReceipt will process the receipt automatically, regardless of whether it’s attached or embedded in the email content.

After forwarding a receipt, you’ll receive a confirmation email within 10–20 seconds once the receipt has been successfully scanned and added to your account.

SparkReceipt automatically extracts key details from the receipt, such as:

You can save time by setting up auto-forwarding rules in your email client. This allows receipts to be sent to SparkReceipt automatically without manual forwarding.

💡 Pro tip (Gmail)
Use Gmail filters to automatically forward receipts to your SparkReceipt address. Create a filter using the sender’s email address and keywords like receipt, invoice, or order confirmation in the subject line.

Why this works well:
Most merchants use consistent sender addresses and subject formats, making Gmail filters reliable and easy to maintain.

💡 Pro tip (Outlook)
Set up a rule in Outlook to forward emails from specific senders (such as billing or invoicing addresses) directly to your SparkReceipt forwarding address.

Tip:
Combine sender-based rules with subject keywords to avoid forwarding non-receipt emails.

💡 Pro tip (iCloud Mail)
Use Mail Rules on iCloud.com to automatically forward receipts to SparkReceipt. Filters can be based on sender address or subject line.

Note:
Auto-forwarding rules must be created on iCloud.com, not directly in the Apple Mail app.

💡 Pro tip (ProtonMail)
Use custom filters in ProtonMail to forward receipts to SparkReceipt. Filters based on sender and subject keywords work best.

Note:
Auto-forwarding requires a paid ProtonMail plan.

💡 Pro tip (Yahoo Mail)
Create filters in Yahoo Mail to forward receipts from specific merchants to your SparkReceipt forwarding address automatically.

Some email providers require verification of the forwarding address. If so, the verification email will be sent to your SparkReceipt address and appear in the Documents section of the app. Follow the instructions in that email to complete the setup.

Always use filters when enabling auto-forwarding. Without filters, you may accidentally forward your entire inbox to SparkReceipt.

A good filter usually includes:

Most merchants use consistent sender addresses and subject lines, making this easy to set up and reliable over time.
