Is Snyp better than Expensify for freelancers?

For most freelancers, yes. Expensify is built around corporate expense management with features like approval workflows and company card reconciliation. If you just need to scan receipts and get the data into Xero or QuickBooks, Snyp is simpler, cheaper, and faster.

Does Snyp handle expense reports like Expensify?

No, and that is by design. Snyp focuses on receipt capture and data extraction. If you need formal expense reports with multi-level approvals, Expensify may be a better fit. But if your goal is getting receipt data into your accounting software quickly, Snyp is the more streamlined choice.

Can Snyp handle receipts in multiple currencies?

Snyp's AI extracts whatever currency appears on the receipt. It is optimised for GBP and UK receipts, but it handles other currencies as well when you receive them.

Is Expensify overkill for a one-person business?

Often, yes. Expensify's pricing and feature set are designed for teams. A sole trader or freelancer typically does not need approval workflows, corporate card management, or per-diem policies. Snyp gives you the scanning and sync features you actually need at a fraction of the cost.

You Don't Need a Corporate Expense Platform to Scan Receipts

Expensify is designed for corporate teams managing expense reports, approval workflows, and company cards. If you are a freelancer, contractor, or small business owner who just needs to capture receipts and get them into your accounting software, Expensify is dramatically over-engineered. Its pricing reflects that complexity, and its UK support has always been secondary to its US focus.

Built for small businesses, not corporations

Snyp does one thing well: scan receipts and sync them to your accounting software. No expense reports, no approval chains, no features you will never use.

UK-first design

Snyp handles GBP, UK VAT rates, and British receipt formats natively. Expensify was built for the US market and it shows in the details.

I can't deal with admin. I take a photo, send it to Snyp, and keep going. I don't even check on it. It's just handled.
