Trips
When a travel receipt or itinerary is uploaded to Expensify via SmartScan, the Trips section of the mobile app automatically populates your trip details. If your flight has cancellations, unexpected changes, or delays, you’ll receive real-time notifications via the mobile app.
For the receipt to be processed as a Trip, it must include:
- Total amount of the expense
- Date of the expense
- Merchant name
If your company integrates with a travel service, you can automate this process entirely:
Add a Trip to Your Account
Trip receipts are often sent via email and may include multiple pages. To simplify the process, forward your receipt directly to Expensify.
To email a flight or hotel receipt:
- Open your email inbox.
- Forward the receipt from your Expensify-associated email address to receipts@expensify.com.
