The receipt scanner app that gets the details right. Before it they reach your books.
Photograph a receipt and Dext reads it — supplier, date, amount, tax and every line on it — then sends a clean, coded record to the accounting software you already use. Nothing to sort later, and nothing to correct.
No credit card required.
The receipts move on their own.
You get on with the day.
In the van, between meetings or waiting at the gate: the receipt goes in the moment it lands in your hand, and Dext takes it from there.
One tap. Any document.
Receipts, invoices and bank statements, captured with the camera already in your pocket.
99%+ accurate
Suppliers, dates, amounts, tax and line items, read off the document and checked before they reach your books.
Already connected
Every document flows into Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and 36+ other platforms, coded and ready.
No laptop required
Capture, review and approve from the phone in your hand, wherever the receipt turned up.
How the Dext receipt scanner app works in about a minute.
Watch one receipt go from photograph to a categorised, coded record sitting in the accounting software you already use.
Seen enough? Point your camera at the next one and watch it come back sorted.
Everything a receipt app should do. Then the bookkeeping after it.
Dext scans and tracks your receipts wherever you happen to be, then keeps going: reading, categorising, checking and handing clean records to your accounting software.
One receipt or a month of them. Same camera.
A single receipt, a fistful of invoices or a multi-page bank statement — Dext works out which is which and treats each one properly:
Single mode – one document at a time
Multiple mode – a whole stack in one session
Combine mode – multi-page invoices merged into a single record
The details on the receipt, not just the amount you paid.
Dext reads every line at over 99% accuracy and suggests where each one belongs, so putting errors right stops being part of your month.
Straight from the pavement to your accounts.
Every receipt you capture syncs to Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and 36+ other platforms on its own, so the books keep pace with the week instead of trailing it.
Receipts are where it starts. Expenses are where it finishes.
Categorise spend, submit claims and sign off what the team spent — in the same app you photographed the receipt with, without switching tools.
Business miles, logged as you drive them.
GPS or manual entry, accurate and tax-compliant, so the claim is ready by the time you park rather than reconstructed at month-end.

It starts with one photo.

FAQs

Most receipt apps stop at keeping the picture. Dext turns the receipt into structured data — every line item, over 99% accuracy, categorised and synced to your accounting software, and captured offline when there is no signal — so it feeds a real bookkeeping workflow rather than a folder of photos. 700,000+ businesses globally use it that way.
Photograph any financial document with your phone — receipt, invoice or bank statement — and Dext sorts it, files it and keeps it encrypted and searchable. When the tax return or an audit comes round, the record is already there, with the image attached to the transaction.
