Good to know
- Flatten the receipt and shoot it in good light so the text fills the frame. It reads much better.
- Yellow cells are values the reader wasn't sure about. Click the photo to see it larger while you fix them.
- Refreshing or leaving the page clears the table, so download the Excel file first.
Store names you fix in the table are remembered in this browser only, so they match first next time. Photos and amounts are never saved.
A free receipt scanner that turns photos into Excel
ReceiptMoa is a free online receipt scanner. Add a batch of receipt photos and it reads the date, store name and total from each one, puts them in a table you can edit, and exports everything as an Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheet. There's nothing to install and no account to create, and it works in the browser on a computer or a phone.
Typing receipts into a spreadsheet by hand takes close to a minute each once you find the total line and double-check the date. ReceiptMoa starts extracting the moment you drop photos in and highlights only the cells that need a human look, so your time goes into checking instead of typing.
How to convert receipts to Excel
- Upload receipts: drag photos onto the first panel or click to choose them. JPG, PNG, WEBP and iPhone HEIC photos work, up to 30 at a time.
- Auto-extract date/store/total: recognition starts right away without pressing anything. The first run takes a little longer while the reader downloads.
- Edit in the table: yellow cells are values the reader wasn't sure about. Click a thumbnail to see the photo larger while you fix them, and the total updates as you type.
- Download Excel: one click gives you a spreadsheet with No., Date, Store and Total columns plus a total row.
What makes it different
Your photos never leave your browser
Many receipt scanner apps upload your photos to a server for processing. ReceiptMoa downloads the text recognition model to your browser and reads the photos on your own device. Receipts that show part of a card number or a name stay private, and nothing is kept once you close the page.
It tells you when it isn't sure
Automatic recognition makes mistakes, especially with crumpled or faded receipts. Instead of presenting guesses as facts, uncertain dates, store names and totals are highlighted in yellow. Where the receipt allows it, the total is also checked against other numbers printed on it.
A spreadsheet that's ready to use
Dates are exported as real date cells and totals as numbers, so sorting and formulas work straight away. The total row uses a SUM formula, and the file opens in Google Sheets and Apple Numbers as well as Excel. Amounts keep two decimal places without a currency symbol, so receipts in dollars, pounds or euros fit the same column.
Common uses
- Building an expense report after a business trip
- Tracking small business or freelance expenses
- Keeping a household budget without typing every grocery receipt
- Club and team treasurers logging group spending
Each use case has its own page with spreadsheet tips and the same tool built in, and the file you download is named for that use.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to install a receipt scanning app?
No. The tool runs in this web page. The files needed for text recognition are downloaded from this site the first time you add a photo, and your browser reuses them after that.
Are my receipt photos uploaded or stored?
No. Photos, the text read from them and the table are processed only in your browser and never sent to any server. Refreshing or closing the page clears everything, so download the Excel file when you're done.
Is it really free?
Yes. There's no sign-up and no payment, and the site is supported by advertising. You can add up to 30 photos at a time and keep adding batches to the same table after each one finishes.
Can it extract line items?
No. It extracts the date, store and total only. The tool is built to get a pile of receipts into one clean table quickly, so individual items are left out.
Does it read receipts in other languages?
This English page reads receipts printed in English. For Korean receipts, use the Korean version of the site, which reads Korean and English together.
