Trips
Overview
Discover how Expensify streamlines your travel expense management when it comes to trips. With the automatic classification of trip receipts and real-time notifications for travel changes, you can effortlessly stay organized and informed on all your trips.
When a travel receipt/itinerary is uploaded into Expensify and SmartScanned, the Trips section of the mobile app will automatically populate your trip information.. If your flight has any cancellations, unexpected changes, or delays, we will make sure you know about it. We will notify you of the change as soon as it happens via the mobile app.
For the receipt to be processed as a Trip, it must include the total amount of the expense, date, and merchant name.
If your company is using a travel integration from the list shown below, you can automate this process entirely:
How to add a Trip to your account
Trip receipts are typically sent via email, and will include multiple pages. With that in mind, we recommend emailing receipts directly to Expensify for ease.
To email a flight or hotel receipt, you’ll forward the receipt from your Expensify-associated email address to receipts@expensify.com.
How to access your Trip information
To view details about your past or upcoming trips, follow these steps within the Expensify mobile app:
