Receipt scanner for Malaysian small businesses
Claim Kira is an iPhone receipt scanner for Malaysian SMEs, freelancers and sole proprietors. Scan or import receipts, check the details, group them by trip, job or company, and export an Excel summary, PDF and original images for your accountant. Processing and storage stay on your iPhone; you choose when to back up, export or share.
Use checkboxes to select several years, months, categories or folders in one export. Choices within one filter are combined; the different filters narrow the result together. The Capture screen also shows aligned spending totals and a shortcut to receipts needing review.
One folder for every trip, job or company.
Keep the receipts that belong together in one place. Name your folders your way, then choose a folder when you export or check total spending.
- Penang work trip
- Client photography job
- Company expenses
Name it. Save it.
Tap + on a receipt to choose a folder or create one. Manage folders under Receipts.
Keep your originals.
Add or remove receipts from a folder. Deleting a folder keeps its receipts, images and original details in All Receipts.
Export just that group.
Choose a folder in Export for your accountant, or in Insights to see its total recorded spending.


Actual app screens with example data. Shown in English; the app also supports Bahasa Melayu and Simplified Chinese.
Check once. Mark it verified.
Compare the receipt image with its merchant, date, invoice number and total. Correct any mistakes, then tap the tick to mark it verified and clear its review flag. Verification records your check; it does not approve a tax deduction.
OCR that learns from your field corrections
Choose the correct merchant, invoice number or total with the OCR selector. Claim Kira can reuse your selections for similar receipt layouts. Always check new results.
Receipt date first
Receipts are ordered by the receipt date, then the scan date. A tidier Capture screen keeps scanning and uploads easy to reach.
Tax season shouldn't feel like this
If any of these sound familiar, Claim Kira was built for you.
A shoebox of faded receipts
Paper receipts can fade or go missing. Capture a readable copy while the details are still clear.
Hours of manual sorting
Typing every merchant, date and amount into a spreadsheet, one by one.
Unsure what you can claim
Is that mamak lunch claimable? Which category? You guess, and hope.
From receipt to claim-ready in five steps
Snap or upload
Place one receipt flat on a contrasting surface in even light. Keep all corners and the final total visible, then capture or import a receipt image.
Auto-crop & read
On-device OCR detects the edges and reads merchant, date, amount, SST and invoice number.
Suggest Malaysian expense categories
Smart categories tuned for Malaysian merchants, with a Claimable / Partly / Capital Allowance guide.
Review what needs checking
Compare the receipt image with the saved fields, correct any mistakes using the OCR selector, then tap the tick to mark it verified and clear its review flag.
Export your Proof Pack
Choose a month, claim type or folder, then export a Proof Pack with an Excel summary, PDF details and original images for your accountant.
Watch before your first receipt

First-time guide
Everything you need, nothing you don't
Batch scanning

Claim status guide
Claimable, Partly, Capital Allowance or Need Review — at a glance.
Duplicate detection
Warns before you claim the same receipt twice.
Spending insights
See recorded spending by folder, month, year, category and claim type.
Proof Pack export
Excel + PDF + original images in one accountant-ready ZIP.
Local file access
Open your receipt folder directly in Files for easy extraction and backup.
Three languages
English, 中文 and Bahasa Melayu — switch anytime.
Manual field OCR
Enlarge and move the receipt, then pick the exact recognised text for merchant, date, amount, invoice number and more.
Home Screen widgets
Open scanning from the small iPhone widget, or see monthly spending and receipt count in the medium widget. Available in the current App Store version.
From daily receipts to your accountant
Claim Kira organises supporting records. It is not accounting software, an e-Invoice issuer or an LHDN filing service.
Check the receipt, not just the OCR
For a restaurant bill, check the final TOTAL after service charge, SST and rounding. A payment label such as TNG or DuitNow is not the expense category. Check the merchant, invoice date and number against the original image before saving.
For English, Malay, Chinese or mixed-language receipts, enlarge the preview and use the field OCR selector to correct readable text. Blurred, faded or angled text may still need manual entry.
Prepare a monthly handoff
Select the month and claim type, check missing details and suspected duplicates, then export a Proof Pack with an Excel summary, PDF and receipt images. Share the files through a channel agreed with your accountant.
SME owners and sole proprietors can keep purchase records together. Accountants receive exported files, not access to a shared live ledger. Ask your accountant to confirm categories and tax treatment.
Keep a recoverable backup
Use the app's backup function and store the backup outside the app, such as in a folder you choose in iCloud Drive. Deleting the app removes its local files. Restore Purchases restores paid access, not receipts.
Keep your original records as required for your business. A receipt image or Proof Pack is not a validated LHDN e-Invoice.

Read the guide →Frequently asked questions
Is Claim Kira free?
Yes. The free plan lets you scan 25 receipts per month with all scanning, OCR and Proof Pack export features. Claim Kira Plus removes the limit for RM8/month, and a one-time RM150 Lifetime plan is also listed. Availability and the final price are shown in the App Store.
Does my receipt data go to the cloud?
Claim Kira processes and stores receipt records on your iPhone, with no automatic receipt upload. You choose when to save a backup outside the app, export or share files. In-app storage uses iOS Data Protection; exported ZIP files are not password-encrypted.
Does Claim Kira help organise LHDN supporting records?
Yes. It extracts and lets you review merchant, date, total amount, category, claim type, claim status, invoice number and notes. Supplier TIN, SSM/registration number, SST and payment method are optional supporting fields.
What can I give my accountant?
The Proof Pack export bundles an Excel summary, a PDF with one page per receipt, and the original images into a single ZIP — ready to hand to your accountant or attach to an LHDN request.
Which languages does Claim Kira support?
English, Simplified Chinese (中文) and Bahasa Melayu. You can switch the whole app language instantly in Settings.
Do I need an internet connection?
Scanning, OCR, categorisation and export work on-device without an internet connection. Downloading the app and Apple purchases need internet. Any cloud storage or sharing service you choose may also need a connection.
Can I correct an OCR field without retyping it?
Yes. Tap the OCR selector beside a receipt field, enlarge and move the receipt preview, then choose the exact recognised text for that field.
Does Claim Kira have iPhone Home Screen widgets?
Open scanning from the small iPhone widget, or see monthly spending and receipt count in the medium widget. Available in the current App Store version.
Can I organise receipts by business trip, job or company?
Yes. Create a named folder and use + on a receipt to save it there. In Receipts > Folders, you can manage the group. Use names that make sense to you, such as a Penang work trip, client project or company.
Will deleting a folder delete the original receipts?
No. Removing a receipt from a folder or deleting the folder removes its grouping only. Original receipt records, images and details stay in All Receipts. Deleting a receipt itself is a separate action.
How do I clear a receipt’s Need Review flag?
Open the receipt, compare its image with the saved fields, correct any errors and tap Mark as verified. The tick clears the review flag. Editing the receipt details requires verification again; the menu also lets you mark it as needing review.
Can I export one folder and see its spending total?
Yes. Select the folder in Export to export its receipts, or select it in Insights to see recorded spending for that group. An export shares files; it does not give your accountant access to a live shared ledger.
