EXPENSE TRACKING
Automatic Expense Tracking for Your Business-of-One
Every business purchase is captured and categorized the moment it happens. Spend with your Lettuce card or a linked business credit card, and your books stay current without you touching them.
THE LETTUCE ADVANTAGE
What Expense Tracking Does
Two Ways In, One Set of Books
Spend on your Lettuce debit card and it's tracked instantly. Already have a business credit card you like? Link it, and expenses flow in automatically from there.
Categorized for You
Lettuce assigns a category to each expense as it arrives, with 99% or better accuracy. You're only asked about the ones it isn't sure of.
Only the Questions That Matter
Chasing a perfect category on every transaction doesn't help you run your business or file a correct return. Lettuce sorts what it can, flags what it can't, and leaves the rest alone.
Change Anything, Anytime
Categories aren't locked. Recategorize any expense in the product whenever you want, and the records update behind it.
Receipts Attached, Not Filed
Receipts are matched to their transactions and stored with them, so the documentation behind a deduction sits next to the deduction itself.
Straight Through to Your Return
Categorized expenses feed your real-time P&L and balance sheet, then flow through payroll into the 1120-S. Nothing gets re-entered.
FROM PURCHASE TO FILED RETURN
Three Steps. Then It Runs Itself.
1. Spend How You Already Spend
Use the Lettuce debit card that comes with your business account, or connect the business credit card you're already carrying. Cards from Chase, Citi, Amex, and other major issuers import automatically.
2. Confirm the Occasional Prompt
Most transactions are categorized without asking. When something is genuinely ambiguous, Lettuce asks you once. That's the whole of your involvement.
3. Read the Reports, Not the Receipts
Your P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement update in real time. At filing, the categories are already where the return needs them.
Guaranteed Savings, or Your Money Back
If Lettuce doesn't save you more in taxes than you pay for Lettuce Pro, your subscription fees are refunded. No hassle. Lettuce-Back Guarantee. Learn more.

Expense Tracking FAQs
No. The Lettuce debit card tracks automatically, and you can link an existing business credit card to bring those expenses in too. Many customers run both.
Lettuce categorizes with 99% or better accuracy. The transactions it can't place with confidence come to you as a prompt rather than being guessed at.
Change it in the product. Nothing is locked, and the reports and filings follow whatever you set.
Receipts are matched to their transactions and stored alongside them in Lettuce, so the substantiation lives with the expense instead of in a folder or a shoebox.
Transactions from a linked card imported through Plaid typically appear within two to three days. Spending on your Lettuce debit card is tracked as it happens.
Real-time profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow statements, all available to download.
Enter them during the year-end TrueUp, along with any other off-platform income and tax payments, so your return reflects the full picture before it's filed.
