AusTax Receipts is the simplest way for Australian tradies, sole traders, contractors and employees to track work expenses all year and be ready at tax time. Snap a photo of any receipt and AusTax reads it on your device — vendor, date, GST, total and line items are filled in for you. No typing, no shoebox of faded paper, no cloud account required. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Snap & scan — photograph a receipt and the details are auto-filled using on-device text recognition. Long receipt? Take several photos and they're stitched into one. • Pinch to zoom — open any saved receipt photo full-screen and zoom in to read the fine print. • GST & totals — subtotal, GST and total are captured for every receipt (estimated automatically when a receipt is hard to read). • Smart categories — expenses are sorted into Australian work categories: Tools & Equipment, Uniforms & PPE, Vehicle & Travel, Home Office, and more. • Partial claims — claim a whole receipt, or just the work-related items on it. • Work log — record onsite shifts, mileage and business flights. Vehicle travel is calculated at the ATO cents-per-km rate. • EOFY summary — see your total deductions, a month-by-month spend chart and a category breakdown at a glance. • One tap for your accountant — export a PDF report (with receipt photos), a CSV, or a ZIP for your tax agent. • Private by design — everything is stored on your device. There is no login and no server. Back up or restore your data whenever you like. FREE & PRO Track up to 7 receipts free — and try AusTax Pro FREE for 7 days.
