Splits and shared bills

How do I attach receipts and files to a transaction?

Open the transaction and choose Receipts & documents. Take a photo, add a file or, on a computer, send one from your phone. Each file can be up to 15 MB, with up to 20 per transaction. Included with Grow and up.

Keep the receipt, invoice or warranty with the purchase it belongs to, so it's there when you need it. Files are private: only you can open them, unless the purchase is a bill you split with your Thrive Duo partner (see below).

Add a file

  1. Open the transaction

    Tap it in Transactions to open its details.

  2. Choose Receipts & documents

    It's near the bottom of the details, under Items.

  3. Add it

    Choose Take a photo (on a phone) or Add a file to pick one or several files. On a computer, Use your phone shows a code: point your phone's camera at it, then take photos or pick files on your phone, and they appear here.

Manage your files

  • Choose what each file is: Receipt, Invoice, Warranty or Document.
  • Open to view it, or Download to save a copy.
  • To delete one, press the bin, then Delete file (or Keep if you change your mind).
  • With Thrive or Thrive Duo, a receipt or invoice offers Read the items. Once it's read, the button shows how many lines it found (like Use 12 lines) and opens the purchase's Items, where Use the receipt's lines fills them in.

On a bill you share with your partner

On Thrive Duo, a file kept with a bill you split with your partner shows for both of you: on the purchase for whoever paid, and on the other's share of it. Their files show under yours, marked added by with their name. You can open and download them; only whoever added a file can change, read or delete it. Once you no longer share a household, each of you sees only your own files again.

Want the lines read in one go and matched to the right purchase? Scan the receipt instead.
