Why use Snyp if Xero already has expense claims?

Xero's expense claims are a basic attachment feature. You still manually enter most of the receipt data. Snyp automates the entire process: it reads the receipt, extracts all the details, categorises it, and syncs everything to Xero. The time savings are significant even at just a few receipts per week.

Does Snyp replace Xero's expense claims?

Snyp works alongside Xero. It creates properly categorised transactions with receipt attachments in your Xero account. You get the same end result as expense claims but without the manual data entry.

Is it worth paying £19/month when Xero expense claims are free?

If you process receipts regularly, the time saved easily justifies the cost. Manually entering receipt data takes 2-3 minutes per receipt. At just 20 receipts a month, that is nearly an hour of tedious work that Snyp eliminates entirely.

Can I use Snyp and Xero expense claims at the same time?

Yes. Some users handle certain receipts through Snyp and use Xero's native expense claims for others. There is no conflict between the two.

Does Snyp work with Xero's chart of accounts?

Yes. Snyp reads your Xero chart of accounts and uses it for auto-categorisation. Receipts are mapped to the correct account codes automatically based on the vendor and content.

Get More From Your Xero Receipts

Xero's built-in expense claims let you attach receipt images to transactions, but the extraction is minimal. You still end up typing in the vendor name, amount, and category by hand. For anyone processing more than a handful of receipts each month, this manual data entry adds up to hours of lost time that could be spent on actual work.

AI does the typing for you

Snyp extracts the vendor, date, line items, VAT, and total automatically. The data flows straight into Xero without you touching a keyboard.

Upload from anywhere

Xero expense claims require you to use the Xero app or web interface. Snyp lets you forward receipts by email or send them via WhatsApp, whatever is fastest in the moment.

Automatic categorisation

Snyp's AI suggests the right category based on the vendor and receipt contents. No more scrolling through chart of accounts dropdowns for every single receipt.

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.
