What is Receipt Radar?
A brand new feature to the Gener8 App, Receipt Radar will help you automatically earn points from your e-receipts ๐ฅณ. This integration allows you to earn even more points from your online purchases by simply linking your Gmail and Outlook accounts to Gener8. Once connected, you'll be instantly rewarded for each receipt ๐.
The magic of Receipt Radar is that it can figure out if an email is a receipt or not, without even taking a look at whatโs inside!
How do we do this? Well, we use some super-smart techniques to identify two basic details:
๐Which retailer sent the email
๐ฉWhatโs in the subject line
Thatโs it!
๐ฏ How does this work?
Get started: Link your email account to Gener8
Select 'Continue with Google' and sign in to your Gmail account (you can also now link your Outlook email too ๐)
Once you've selected 'accept permissions' and connected your account, Receipt Radar will scan for e-receipts from selected merchants.
โฐ The first scan may take up to 10 minutes
๐ช Receipt Radar works its magic every 24 hours
Receipt Radar will automatically scan for e-receipts every 24 hours ๐.
For your first scan, if any receipts are found you'll gain an extra 50 points on top of the points earned per receipt ๐ฅณ.
If no receipts are found on the first scan, you'll still get an extra 10 points ๐.
โ๏ธ Can I deactivate Receipt Radar?
You sure can (although you'll miss out on earning extra Gener8 points ๐ฅน)!
Once deactivated, you won't lose any points previously earned from Receipt Radar but it will stop scanning for e-receipts and you'll automatically stop earning points.
iOS
Android
To deactivate, select the settings โ๏ธ button in the top right corner of the Gener8 App and tap 'Remove'.
๐ง Can I add more than one email account?
Right now, you can connect one Gmail account at any one time. However, if you do want to earn from more than one Gmail account you can remove the account and add another account to maximise your earnings.
๐ง When will other email providers be available on Receipt Radar?
On iOS (and soon to be on Android) and web, you can now link your Outlook email to Receipt Radar ๐. We will look to expand this to Yahoo and other providers. Keep an eye on our updates and we'll let you know when the new feature is available.
