Record-keeping, tax years and consumer rights in each country, answered against what each regulator publishes.

Your receipts are yours

The ATO expects you to keep records for five years. That's a long time to trust an app, so here's where we stand.

  • Cancelling never locks your vault

    If you cancel or lapse, every receipt you've already saved stays readable. A free plan limits what you can add - never what you already have.

  • Your receipt images are yours

    Save any receipt image straight to your phone, whenever you want it - the original photo, not a copy we hold onto.

  • An Australian business

    Bilbx is built and run by Fairgo Logistics in Perth, Western Australia, for the tax rules and consumer law of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and the US.
