Limits and formats - ClearSpend

Upload limits depend on which screen you use. This table is the source of truth.

File size and count limits

Upload path	Max file size	Max files	Supported types
+ Add Data Source → Upload Invoices/Receipts	10 MB	20	PDF, JPG, CSV
+ Add Data Source → Import subscriptions (card statements)	10 MB	20	CSV
Subscription detail → upload	10 MB	Per dialog	PDF, JPG
Needs review → approve with documents	8 MB	10	CSV, PDF
Public upload link (`/p/<token>`)	8 MB	20 per session	PDF, JPG, PNG
Chrome extension popup	8 MB	Varies	PDF, JPG, PNG, CSV

Why two sizes? In-app bulk uploads allow 10 MB; public and review flows cap at 8 MB for faster processing and consistent recipient experience.

Statement CSV tips

Export from your card portal as CSV when importing subscriptions in bulk.
Include columns for date, merchant/description, and amount when possible.
ClearSpend matches merchants to known vendors; unknown rows may create new subscriptions or land in Needs review.

Invoice and receipt formats

PDF and JPG work for individual invoices and receipts.
Scanned PDFs and photos are supported; OCR extracts vendor, amount, and date.
Multi-page PDFs are treated as one document.

Integration limits (by plan)

Integration caps depend on your ClearSpend plan. Check Settings → Billing for your workspace’s Integrations usage meter. When you’re at the limit, Connect is blocked until you upgrade or remove a connection. See Billing.
