What is Shoeboxed?

Shoeboxed helps sole proprietors and small businesses scan and categorize their business expense receipts. This is not only helpful for maximizing tax deductions come tax time, but also in the case that their business is audited.

What makes Shoeboxed different is the plethora of ways Shoeboxed allows their customers to submit receipts for processing. Customers can submit receipts via Shoeboxed's free mobile apps, forward email receipts to their custom Shoeboxed email address, or mail their receipts to Shoeboxed using Magic Envelopes.

It will also categorize the receipts into one of the IRS's standard 15 expense categories. Shoeboxed also uses human-verification to ensure the accuracy of extracted data.

Pros

It's a fantastic way to store recipes and track expenses. The team is responsive and the app is user friendly.

Ronald J.

President

Shoeboxed helps to make that process easy by just dropping everything in an envelope and a few days later it is scanned in our account which we can then save or import into accounting software.

Corbin P.

Principal

It makes receipts much less time consuming and easy to log. The interface is great and significantly better than my prior receipt management software - BizExpenseTracker.

Dan G.

Owner

Cons

This is frustrating because it should be an unnecessary task. Shoeboxed already knows the envelope number, and could have printed it on the outside, or on the inside, but they don't.

Richard H.

Software Consultant

Some receipts uploaded have printing issues, blurry so on, that is the major draw back.

Neil V.

Application Consultant

It is hard to keep things described and separated properly. I don't think that it has a high enough functionality for me to use it all year long.
