Auto-forwarding is when you set up rules and filters within your email that automatically send a receipt to your Float personal inbox. You can create filters to automatically send all matching emails to your personalized Float receipt inbox to make uploading receipts that much easier!

You can set up auto-forwarding from your Gmail accounts by following these steps:

1. On your computer, open Gmail using the account you want to forward messages from. You can only forward messages for a single Gmail address, and not an email group or alias.
2. In the top right, click Settings   See all settings. 
3. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
4. In the "Forwarding" section, click Add a forwarding address.
5. Enter your personalized Float receipt inbox address.
6. Click Next  Proceed  OK.
7. Go back to the settings page for the Gmail account you want to forward messages from, and refresh your browser.
8. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
9. In the "Forwarding" section, select Forward a copy of incoming mail to.
10. Choose what you want to happen with the Gmail copy of your emails. We recommend keeping Gmail's copy in the Inbox.
11. At the bottom of the page, click Save Changes.

And that's it! Gmail will start automatically forwarding your receipts based on your present filters to your receipt inbox in Float. We will try to automatically match this to a transaction for you. If we are unable to, you can find these receipts under receipts > not matched in your Float account!

Auto-forwarding Receipts (Microsoft 365)

Microsoft 365 disables automatic email forwarding by default. To use automatic forwarding “rules” set up via Microsoft Exchange, you will need to enable automatic email forwarding in Microsoft Defender (the security administration panel for Microsoft 365’s corporate offering).
