How RCT actually works
Specific, checkable notes on receipt scanning, item-level categorization, and staying on budget.
The Notifications RCT Sends You, and Why
July 15, 2026
RCT's notifications are built from your own scanned receipts, discount totals, streaks, and store visits, not generic reminders, so each one points at something specific in your spending.
What RCT's Reports Tab Actually Tells You About Your Spending
July 12, 2026
RCT's reports break spending down by category trend, store, and discounts saved, using the item-level data from every scanned receipt instead of a single monthly total.
Splitting a Bill? Send the Exact Items, Not Just a Number
July 8, 2026
RCT lets you select individual items off a scanned receipt and send them to whoever you're splitting with, as a full price or a percentage split, instead of texting a rounded guess.
Missed the Apple Pay Notification? It's Still Waiting for You
July 6, 2026
If you don't log an Apple Pay purchase the moment its notification appears, RCT keeps it in a pending list organized by day, so you can catch up on missed contactless purchases later instead of losing them.
Track Apple Pay Purchases Without Ever Touching a Receipt
July 4, 2026
An iOS Shortcut connected to RCT sends you a notification right after an Apple Pay tap, so you can log contactless purchases in one tap even when there's no paper receipt to scan.
Batch Scanning: Clear Out a Shoebox of Receipts in One Sitting
June 30, 2026
RCT can scan a whole stack of receipts in one session, sorting items on each one individually, so you can catch up on weeks of spending without opening the app once per receipt.
Why RCT Splits Every Receipt Into Line Items, Not One Number
June 25, 2026
RCT scans each item on a receipt and sorts it into one of 33 categories individually, so a single grocery run shows up as separate amounts for produce, snacks, and cleaning supplies instead of one lump 'shopping' expense.
The Interactive Budget Check RCT Shows You Before You've Scanned a Single Receipt
June 23, 2026
RCT's onboarding includes an interactive exercise that splits a sample budget into essential and discretionary categories, letting you cut spending in real time to see what it actually takes to hit a savings goal.
How RCT Reads Receipts in Hungarian, German, and Dutch
June 20, 2026
RCT uses dedicated categorization support for the languages of its core markets, Hungary, Germany, and the Netherlands, with a simpler fallback that still sorts items into categories for other languages.
Spending in More Than One Currency? RCT Converts It Automatically
June 15, 2026
RCT tracks a daily exchange rate and converts receipts and manual entries in other currencies back to your home currency automatically.
No Receipt? Log It Manually and Tag It So Reports Stay Accurate
June 10, 2026
RCT lets you add an expense or income entry by hand when there's no receipt to scan, and tag any entry, including a built-in 'Excluded from Reports' tag for things that shouldn't count toward your spending totals.
Setting Spending Limits Per Category, Not Just Overall
June 5, 2026
RCT lets you set a separate spending limit for each of its categories, like groceries or eating out, and tracks your actual scanned spending against it instead of one single monthly budget number.
