Frequently Asked Questions

What does Wave’s mobile receipt feature do, exactly?

Wave’s mobile receipts feature lets you instantly input expenses into Wave. Take a photo or upload a receipt on-the-go from your mobile device, upload receipt files from your desktop at waveapps.com, or send your receipt files or e-receipts directly to Wave via your unique email forwarding address. Then, sit back while Wave scans and processes each receipt with optical character recognition (OCR) technology to automatically create a new bookkeeping record.

Wave’s mobile receipts feature needs an internet connection to upload, scan, process, and post expenses to Wave.

What do I get with my subscription?

When you sign up for Wave’s receipts feature or subscribe to Wave’s Pro Plan, you also get access to accounting transactions on the mobile app. This lets you add and categorize income and expense transactions directly from your phone. Both options come with unlimited receipt scans so you can effortlessly track expenses and cut down on manual data entry and bookkeeping. Plus, you’ll get access to a real, live customer support agent via chat or email, Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:45 PM Eastern.
