### 4/5 — Photos don’t always work

*2024-01-01*

I take the picture of my receipt but the app doesn’t work until I have to put it in manually

**Developer response:** Make sure the toggle switch that says "Analyze my receipt for me" is on. When you take a picture A.I. will pull all the information it can from the receipt to reduce typing.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and great deal!

*2023-08-29*

I would’ve never known that this tax refund was ever a thing without this app. It’s super easy to use and I get cash back that I never need I could… it’s great!

### 5/5 — Easy way to get my money back!

*2023-07-29*

I was so thankful this app came out to help me get my gas tax back. The state really makes you jump through hoops to claim it, but this app streamlines the process and makes it simple!!!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-07-14*

Great design, easy to use. Takes a tedious government process and streamlines it to get me money back! Can’t beat that

Super easy to use. Helped me get my money back from the state I would've never had time to get on my own.

### 1/5 — They take 20% of your refund!

*2026-08-03*

The irony is; by using the app you’re trying to save about 3% off a gallon of gas just to have the app steal 20% of that🙄

**Developer response:** Thanks for trying the app. MO Gas Tax Back is free to use for tracking receipts throughout the year. We charge 20% of the refund only when you choose to generate your completed form, and the exact cost is shown before payment.

You keep 80% of a refund that may otherwise go unclaimed. If the service is not worth the cost to you, there is no obligation to pay. Payments help keep the app running and allow us to continue providing support.

### 1/5 — Mo gas tax back

*2025-12-14*

I downloaded the app and signed in our cars. Used it once. Went to enter another receipt and I was kicked out of it. 
I tried signing back in and it would not allow me to sign in. 
I tried forgot password to get signed in. It said I had no account. 
I gave up.

### 1/5 — Can’t even submit for refund

*2025-08-17*

Tried sending in for a refund and I paid the 20% fee to do so, $3.90.  Didn’t do anything so try to resubmit says I owe another fee, $1 pay it and does nothing cause links are broken.  Just got scammed, Give me my money back Ryan!

### 1/5 — Creating account

*2025-07-03*

I couldn’t create an account because of some daily error limit. This was the first time I downloaded the app and tried to create an account.

### 1/5 — Inconvenient

*2023-11-27*

Filling out all the info on every single fuel purchase is insane. This is 2023. It shouldn’t be this difficult to get the refund.

**Developer response:** Hey there, you do not need to fill out the information on every single fuel purchase. When you click the "add receipt" button, there is a switch you can flip to "Analyze my receipt for me". When you take a picture A.I. will pull all the information it can from the receipt to reduce typing.

Also, every receipt uploaded has the gas station tracked. If you go to that gas station a lot, it will populate in the Favorite stations dropdown when you add a receipt. You can click the station to quick enter in the information. Very simple to use.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-11-10, version 11.1.1*

Does not work. Waste of time.

### 2/5 — Can’t even submit for refund

*2025-07-19*

Tried sending in for refund as there is a window of time to do so.  It will not accept my last name to submit this.  All that work for nothing.  UPDATE:  Tried it again weeks  later and now submit button doesn’t even work to “setup” account.”  Pointless!

### 2/5 — Can’t even submit for refund

*2025-07-08*

Tried sending in for refund as there is a window of time to do so.  It will not accept my last name to submit this.  All that work for nothing.

### 2/5 — Tax refund

*2025-03-31*

Why do you only get 4 or 5 pictures per day and why do you have to pay to fill out the form to get your money back?!! Who’s the one that thought  ? Makes no sense to have to pay to get our money back

### 4/5 — Good

*2024-02-25*

It’s a good app but would be better if he didn’t take 20%.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-09*

Best app ever to get your money back from Missouri fuel tax. Law makers were banking on citizens of Missouri not submitting for the refund for the fuel tax hike a few years back.

### 5/5 — Tax back

*2026-04-08*

This app makes the refund so easy

### 5/5 — Easy Money

*2026-04-02*

Thanks to Ryan it is easy to scan receipts and get your refund

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2026-03-31*

The receipt scanning works better than any other program I have ever used.

### 5/5 — Testing

*2026-01-29*

Just downloaded the app and submitted my first receipt. So far everything has been straightforward.

### 5/5 — Nice-N-Easy

*2025-12-28*

This has to be the quickest, no hassle way to reclaim some of the Missouri fuel tax money!

### 5/5 — Great way to save

*2025-12-26*

This app is amazing!!  It so simple to use and it easy to add your tickets and then when it’s time they send very easy information on how to process your refund.

### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2025-10-16*

I had low expectations for the app, but after my first year of using it to test it, it really does work well! The app itself is basic enough to use with AI help reading receipts. When it comes time to file, the app gives you very specific instructions to file. I received my check within 10 days.

### 5/5 — Great customer service!

*2024-08-30*

The app had a little glitch when I was setting up my account. Ryan went above and beyond to help me.  I have since used the app with zero problems.  So much easier than hanging on to all those receipts!

### 5/5 — Minor issues

*2024-05-29*

When entering an address the number pad should automatically come up. Same street names, it only capitalizes the first name not the second. Same for when you enter a city that has 2 names, only the first is capitalized..
When you enter the same gas station, no auto fill. Like I said, little things that are easy to fix.

**Developer response:** Hey there,

When you enter the same gas station, you can either have the app automatically read the information for you by toggling the "Analyze my receipt for me" option to on. If you prefer not to have your receipt automatically read, there is a dropdown of Frequent Stations you can select from to automatically populate the gas station each time. So you have plenty of options.

I'd love to hear more about the capitalization issues you're experiencing, as this is completely new to me. Please email me at herdmap1@gmail.com to discuss the issue further, and I will try to fix it for you. You can also contact us directly by clicking your profile and then selecting Send Feedback.

Thank you for using the app!
