Email receipts to Found

You can forward receipts directly from your inbox to your unique Found email address.

Alternatively, you can copy your unique Found email address from the mobile receipt upload flow outlined above.

Once you have your unique Found email address:

  1. Send an email to that unique Found email address with a receipt attached. 

  2. Found will process each attachment and attempt to match it to an existing transaction.

  3. If no match is found, Found will create a new manual expense and attach the receipt.

  4. You'll receive a confirmation email with a link to review and refine the details if needed.
