Why TextLedger

The receipt you lose is the deduction you lose.

Business owners lose thousands of dollars in tax deductions every year because receipts get lost, damaged, or forgotten in the bottom of a bag.

TextLedger makes keeping business records as easy as sending a text message. Snap a photo, send it, and we organize the rest โ€” logged, categorized, and backed up the moment it arrives.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install an app?

No. TextLedger works entirely through SMS or WhatsApp โ€” no download, no account creation.

Do you support iPhone and Android?

Yes. Since it's all text-based, it works identically on any phone.

Do I need WhatsApp?

No. Standard SMS works just as well โ€” WhatsApp is simply an option if you prefer it.

Can my accountant receive reports automatically?

Yes. Add their email once, and monthly categorized summaries can be sent directly to them.

Do you keep my receipt images?

Yes, securely, so you always have the original on file alongside the extracted data.

Can I delete my information?

Yes, at any time โ€” just text "DELETE MY DATA" or contact us directly.

What happens if a receipt can't be read?

We'll let you know right away and ask you to confirm the details, rather than guessing and logging something incorrect.

Can I throw away the paper receipt after I text it?

For most everyday business expenses, yes โ€” a clear digital copy is generally sufficient to satisfy IRS documentation requirements. One exception: receipts for vehicles, equipment, or other business property should be kept for as long as you own the asset (plus a few years after you sell it), since they establish your cost basis. We recommend keeping those specific images long-term rather than treating them the same as a routine expense. TextLedger doesn't provide tax or legal advice โ€” check with your accountant about your specific situation.
