How do I automatically forward receipts to Hubdoc?

Connect your email to Expensent and enter your unique Hubdoc email address as your forwarding destination. Expensent finds invoice emails and categorizes them. Forward with one click, or set up auto-forwarding — next time that invoice comes in, it’s handled automatically.

Where do I find my Hubdoc email address?

Each Hubdoc organization has a unique email address. Find it in Settings > Organization, or click the Upload Documents button in Hubdoc. This unique address is what you enter as your Expensent forwarding destination.

Can I add notes when forwarding to Hubdoc?

Yes! Include #note your message #note in the forwarded email to add notes to the document in Hubdoc. This works with any email forwarded to your Hubdoc address.

What accounting software does Hubdoc publish to?

Hubdoc extracts data from receipts and publishes it to Xero, QuickBooks Online, or Bill.com. It is included free with all Xero subscriptions.

Can vendors send invoices directly to my Hubdoc email?

Yes! You can give your Hubdoc email address to vendors and they can add it to their accounts receivable contacts to send invoices directly. Expensent complements this by catching receipts that come to your personal inbox.

Is my email data secure?

Absolutely. We use OAuth 2.0 authentication (we never see your password), bank-level encryption. AI prefilters on email metadata only—personal emails are filtered out without their content ever being read.

Automatic Hubdoc Receipt Forwarding

Forward receipts to your Hubdoc email automatically

Stop manually forwarding receipts to Hubdoc. Expensent automatically detects invoice emails in your inbox and forwards them to your unique Hubdoc email address for data extraction and publishing to Xero, QuickBooks Online, or Bill.com. Set it up once in 5 minutes, and never forward a receipt manually again.

The Manual Forwarding Problem

Hubdoc extracts data from receipts and publishes to your accounting software, but still requires you to forward each receipt:

•Each email receipt must be forwarded to your Hubdoc email manually
•Missing receipts mean incomplete records in Xero or QuickBooks
•Bookkeepers waste time chasing clients for documentation
•Receipts pile up in your inbox instead of reaching Hubdoc

How Hubdoc Receipt Email Forwarding Works

Hubdoc (owned by Xero) provides each organization with a unique email address for receipt forwarding. Find yours in Settings → Organization or via the Upload Documents button. When receipts are sent to this address:

•Hubdoc extracts key data (vendor, amount, date) from the receipt
•Extracted data is published to Xero, QuickBooks Online, or Bill.com
•Add notes with #note your message #note in the email
•Vendors can also send invoices directly to your Hubdoc email

Pro tip: Give your Hubdoc email to vendors so they can send invoices directly. Expensent catches everything else that arrives in your personal inbox.
