Receipt scanning apps

Receipt scanning is a low-effort way to earn small rewards from shopping you already do. It will not replace a job, but it can stack neatly with cashback and supermarket loyalty schemes.

How it works

You upload a photo of an eligible receipt, the app verifies it, and points are added to your account. Most apps accept supermarket receipts, while some also accept online receipts forwarded by email.

  • Keep receipts flat and readable
  • Upload quickly before any expiry window
  • Combine with cashback card payments where allowed

Kelly's tips

Use one folder or envelope for receipts and upload them once or twice a week. The users who earn consistently are not doing anything complicated — they simply build a habit.

  • Do not buy extra items just for points
  • Check payout thresholds before starting
  • Use a separate email for receipt-forwarding apps
