Track Expenses, Not Receipts

Shared shopping lists, receipt photos, and transparent expense tracking in one place. No more crumpled receipts in pockets or awkward "how much do I owe you?" conversations.

Shopping Lists That Sync Instantly

Create shared shopping lists that everyone in the family can see and update in real time. No more texting "can you also get milk?" — just add it to the list.

  • Organised by category: Group items by groceries, household, childcare, or custom categories
  • Assign a shopper: Assign the list to your au pair or any family member — they get notified immediately
  • Frequent items: Save commonly bought items as templates. Add "weekly groceries" with one tap instead of typing each item again
  • Real-time sync: Items get checked off as they're bought — see progress from anywhere
  • Favourite stores: Save your preferred shops with addresses for easy reference

🛒 Frequent Items save time — add your regular shopping list with one tap instead of typing every item from scratch

Submit Expenses in Seconds

Your au pair buys groceries, picks up school supplies, or pays for an activity. Instead of saving crumpled receipts and hoping nobody forgets, they snap a photo and submit the expense right from the app.

📸

Snap the receipt

Take a photo of the receipt directly in the app. It's stored securely and linked to the expense.

💰

Enter the amount

Add the total and select a category: shopping, babysitting, or other. Currency is set per family (EUR, USD, GBP, and more).

📋

Link to a task

Optionally connect the expense to a shopping task for full context. Parents see exactly what was bought and why.

Transparent Reimbursement

No more guessing who owes what. Every expense flows through a clear, three-step process:

1

Submit

Au pair submits expense with receipt photo, amount, and category. Parents get notified.

2

Review

Parents review the receipt and amount. Everything is transparent — no surprises.

3

Reimburse

One tap to mark as reimbursed. Both sides see the updated status instantly.

💡 All expenses are tracked with full history — see what's pending, what's been reimbursed, and export for your records

Digital Receipt Storage

Every receipt photo is stored securely and linked to its expense. No more shoeboxes of paper receipts or blurry WhatsApp photos that disappear in chat history.

  • Always accessible: View any receipt anytime from the expense history
  • Linked to context: Each receipt is tied to the expense, the task, and the date — complete audit trail
  • Secure storage: Receipt photos are stored in encrypted cloud storage, accessible only to your family
