Receipt capture and spending insight

Making Cents turns receipts into usable spending insight.

Making Cents is a personal finance app for people who want a clearer picture of where their money goes. Users can scan receipts, save purchase details, and review spending in one place instead of manually piecing together bank notifications and notes.

The app helps users organize expenses by category, merchant, and date, monitor subscriptions, and spot patterns across everyday spending so they can better understand habits and make more informed decisions.

How it works

From scanned receipt to category-level insight

1. Scan and save receipts

Users capture receipts and keep a digital record of purchases inside the app.

2. Organize by merchant and category

Saved records can be reviewed by spending category, purchase date, and merchant.

3. Understand spending patterns

Users can see which categories take the biggest share of their budget and where habits are shifting.

What users can understand

Spending signals, not just stored transactions

Which categories dominate the month

See whether groceries, transport, dining, or subscriptions are driving total spend.

Where repeat spend is building up

Review recurring merchants and subscriptions that quietly add pressure to the budget.

How spending changes over time

Compare recent receipts and categories to understand trends instead of looking at isolated purchases.

Receipt-Based Expense Capture

Save purchase details from receipts so expenses are easier to review later, even when paper records are gone.

Category-Level Spending Breakdown

Group expenses by category, merchant, and timing so users can understand where money is actually going.

Subscription and Trend Visibility

Surface recurring charges and changing spending patterns so users can spot budget pressure earlier.
