Is there an app that can import and track your expenses by analyzing your bank sms?

Use your banking app?

Or do you mean category split?

Banking app is not useful for my use case.
I'm trying to get an idea of who spends what during the month and not have to wait for my statement. My statement shows per card spending. The app or browser version doesn't.

Each family member uses their own card linked to one account.

I've started playing with IFTTT which can analyze incoming SMS and search for X and then drop it into a Google sheet. Works ok if it's one sms. As soon as there are multiple sms in the same thread it ignores it.

22seven doesn't have the option to filter on card number. As I've said, one account and multiple cards linked to it.

Tried that. Same as 22seven. It will pull in the transactions but there is no way to filter by card number.

Found an app that might just do the trick.

Sure it does. It list all POS transactions with card number at the end then just do a search for that. From there you can categorise it by whoever's card it is.

I'm not seeing any mentioning of the card number. Where do you see that? Do you mean this?

My VMCC pulls through there. Capitec pulls through under description and shows my card number at the end. Guess you should change banks.

Description: Purchase Cash (R300.00): Shoprite (Card 1234)

Na, the 3-4k they pay me every month to bank with them works well for me. Besides, does capitec even offer additional cards using your spouse's or kids name?

Yes you can.

Can 22Seven select a start date yet?

People have been asking for it for years (including me) and the only thing to do was a workaround by selecting and clicking 'transfer' to a new category. I loved the app - but I love a clean slate. I'd like to start 1 March with the tax year
