Three moves. Four minutes a month.
Scan
Point the camera at a slip. It finds the edges, straightens the paper, and captures on its own. A stack of ten takes about a minute.
Confirm
Merchant, date, total and tax arrive already read. Anything uncertain is flagged for one glance, never silently committed.
Send the pack
Pick an account and a month. One PDF with the totals and tax summed on the cover, ready for your accountant or your own return.
The whole app, four screens
Scanning is the intake pipe. The pack is the product.
The pack
A dated, account-separated A4 bundle with a tax cover page. Clean enough that your accountant shows it to other accountants.
The archive
Thermal paper fades within months, and tax offices ask for years. Slipsort keeps every slip legible and searchable in seconds.
The handover
Download it, message it, or send a view-only link. Month-end becomes four minutes, not four hours in a shoebox.

The fading paper problem
Thermal slips fade within months. Tax offices ask for years.
Five years in South Africa, and some number of years wherever you are. The number changes; the shoebox does not. It turns to blank paper, and the pack does not. Every slip is stored at full quality, and South African slips also have their numbers checked against what makes a valid tax invoice.
Generous free. One paid plan.

Asked at every till
- How long must I keep till slips for SARS?
- Five years from the date you submit the return they support, and longer if an objection or audit is still open. Slipsort keeps every scan at full quality for as long as your account exists. Learn more
- What makes a till slip a valid tax invoice?
- Under R5 000 an abridged tax invoice is enough: the supplier's name, address and VAT number, an invoice number and date, a description, and the amount with VAT shown or stated. Slipsort checks each slip against these requirements when it reads it. Learn more
- Can I claim VAT from a till slip?
- Yes, if the slip qualifies as a tax invoice. For purchases of R50 or less you do not need an invoice at all, only proof like the slip itself. The pack Slipsort builds sums the VAT for the period and flags slips that do not qualify. Learn more
- Why do till slips fade, and what can I do about it?
- Most slips are thermal paper: the print is heat-marked dye, and warmth, light, plastic sleeves and time all erase it. Scanning is the only reliable fix, and it has to happen before the ink goes. Learn more
- What is the easiest way to organise receipts for tax season?
- Scan them the day you get them, keep business and personal in separate accounts, and let month-end be one export instead of an afternoon of sorting. That flow is the whole design of Slipsort. Learn more
- How do I get my slips to my accountant?
- As one PDF pack per account per period, with totals and VAT summed on a cover page, plus a CSV their software can import. Download it, message it, or send a view-only link. Learn more
- Does Slipsort work offline?
- Yes. Slips are saved on the phone the moment they are scanned and upload when there is signal again, which matters in a country where the power schedule is a planning tool.
- Is Slipsort free?
- The free plan scans without limits, reads 30 slips a month for you, and builds the current month's pack. Sorted, at R 49,99 a month, opens every month, removes the watermark, and adds the CSV. The first seven days are free on the iPhone app.
