Handling Duplicate Receipts

duplicate scan organizing

Sometimes you might import the same receipt more than once, or an e-receipt and a scan of it end up duplicated. ReceiptRoller detects this automatically and offers to merge them.

Automatic duplicate detection

  • When scanning, you may see "This receipt may already be registered."
  • It's determined by a combination of store, date, total amount, and items.
  • If it's a duplicate, you can choose to skip registering it, or to keep both.

If you notice a duplicate later

  • Open one of the receipts from your history.
  • Choose "Delete" from the menu.
  • Deleting only removes it from your history; it has no effect on the original items or your totals.

When an e-receipt and a scan overlap

If you scanned a receipt after the e-receipt had already arrived, we recommend deleting the scan. The e-receipt is more accurate and includes precise item details.

If you deleted one by mistake

A deleted receipt can be restored from the "Trash" within 30 days. Choose the receipt from "Trash" in the menu and tap "Restore."
