Key Benefits

Built for how you actually travel.

See prices in your money.

Foreign labels stop making sense the moment you land.

Scan any tag or receipt and TripSum shows the price in your currency and the trip's side by side, so there's no mental math.

Scan, don't type.

Nobody wants to type numbers into a calculator while holding shopping bags.

TripSum's camera reads prices, currencies, and totals automatically. AI does the work so you don't have to.

Stay on budget.

Statement shock: you only find out you overspent when the bank statement arrives at home.

Set a budget per trip. TripSum updates it with every purchase and shows your day rate, so you always know what you can still spend.

What Travelers Say

Don't take our word for it.

I used to guess what everything cost. Now I just scan and know. The budget tracker saved me from overspending in Bali.

Expense reports used to take hours after every trip. I scan receipts as I go now — then export the PDF. Done.

My kids kept asking 'how much is that?' Now they just point TripSum at the price. Even they get it.

I travel solo every few months. Keeping track of multiple currencies used to be chaos. TripSum just handles it — I barely think about money anymore.

We used TripSum on our honeymoon across Europe. Watching the budget in real time meant zero post-trip stress. It was worth every penny.

As a digital nomad I'm always juggling rent, food, and travel costs across different cities. TripSum is the first app that actually makes sense of it all.

Trekked through South America for six weeks. Every hostel, bus, and meal — scanned and categorised. The summary PDF at the end was genuinely impressive.

Gap year on a tight budget. TripSum showed me exactly where my money was going — turned out coffee was eating 15% of my monthly spend.

I fly for work twice a month. Submitting expenses used to mean digging through receipts for an hour. Now I export the PDF and I'm done in two minutes.
