Are there any good apps for tracking expenses on the go?
Capture expenses immediately, then organize them later with a reliable routine.
Expense tracking breaks down most often at the moment of purchase. Receipts get lost, details fade, and small expenses add up unnoticed.
The goal is simple: capture expenses immediately, then organize them later.
Step 1: Capture the expense right away
As soon as you pay for something:
- Take a photo of the receipt
- Or record the amount, date, and purpose in your phone
This works for:
- Supplies
- Booth fees
- Parking
- Meals during events
- Travel costs
Step 2: Categorize regularly
Set a weekly or post-event routine to:
- Assign categories (supplies, fees, travel, etc.)
- Confirm amounts
- Store receipts in one place
Avoid letting receipts pile up until tax season.
Step 3: Connect expenses to sales
Expense data is most useful when paired with sales data from the same event.
When sales and expenses live in separate systems, it’s harder to see true profitability.
Vorbiz focuses on capturing clean sales data per event, making it easier to later match expenses and understand real profit without guesswork.
Key takeaway
You don’t need a complex system to track expenses—just a reliable habit. Capture first, organize later, and keep everything tied to the event where possible.
