Forward your bank emails to Bosla
Forward your bank's alert emails to your household's Bosla address, and each purchase lands in To review.
Most banks email you when you pay. Forward those alerts to Bosla and each purchase or payment appears in To review, ready to add, change or skip.
Get your Bosla address
- 1Open Settings → Bank emails.
- 2Under Your household's Bosla address, tap Copy.
Everyone in the household can use the same address. Only forward emails from your bank. If you cannot see an address, ask the household owner to set this up.

Add a shop without asking
When you add an entry from a bank email, Bosla may ask whether to add that shop automatically from now on. Choose Yes, add automatically to skip the check next time. You can see and switch these off under Shops you've approved in Settings → Bank emails. Only alerts from banks Bosla recognises are added automatically.
What Bosla keeps
Bosla reads each email once, keeps only the amount, date, shop and last 4 digits, and deletes the email. With a privacy key, the shop name is locked so only your family's phones can read it. Bank emails are never used to train AI.
How many emails
The Free plan includes 30 bank emails a month; paid plans include more. The count shows on Settings → Bank emails.
