This Is The New Life-Changing Way To Keep Track Of Your Spending

When you buy something for work (lunch, beers, parking, whatever) keeping the receipt is essential if you want to get reimbursed, but even if you do everything right, at the end of the month you get to sit down with an envelope full of receipts, your diary and the company spreadsheet and try to figure out just WTF you spent $73.90 on at some place in central Auckland three weeks ago.

It’s a nightmare.

Now you can relax because Paypr puts the receipt straight into your phone in real time, so you can code it and send it on its merry way to Xero while you wait for your latte, or wheat beer, or whatever it is you’re buying.

It saves time and hassles with the accountant, it’s ideal for small businesses that just want to get on with the job they love rather than the paperwork and it means no more Envelopes of Doom at the end of each month.

The typical customer will be a bloke with his own business, maybe a few staff but maybe just himself, run entirely off a Macbook Air and a smartphone. He’s keen to automate all the bullshit in his daily existence and focus on the job he’s getting paid for, and if he can find an app to make life easier (Uber, Slack, Trello for example) he tells all his mates and his accountant and encourages them to use it as well.

He’s social media savvy and often gets called upon by his mates to sort them out with the latest apps, tools and ideas for business.
