How to Find Stripe Receipts in Gmail
January 28, 2025 · Poyan Karimi
It's the end of the month. Your accountant wants receipts. You know Stripe sent them – but where the hell are they?
Here's how to find them. Fast.
The quick way: Gmail search
Open Gmail and paste this:
from:receipts@stripe.com
Boom. All your Stripe receipts.
Want a specific time period? Add a date range:
from:receipts@stripe.com after:2024/01/01 before:2024/12/31
That gives you all Stripe receipts from 2024.
The problem: Stripe uses multiple email addresses
Here's the annoying part. Stripe doesn't always send from the same address. Depending on your setup, receipts might come from:
receipts@stripe.comnotifications@stripe.combilling@stripe.com- Or even a custom address if the merchant configured it
So if the first search doesn't find everything, try:
from:stripe.com receipt OR invoice
This catches any email from Stripe that mentions "receipt" or "invoice."
Still missing some? Check these folders
Gmail sometimes filters Stripe emails into:
- Promotions – because Google thinks billing is marketing (thanks, Google)
- Updates – slightly better, but still buried
- Spam – occasionally, for no reason
Check all three if you're missing receipts.
The "I need all of them right now" method
If you need a full year of receipts and don't want to click through 47 emails:
- Search:
from:stripe.com receipt after:2024/01/01 before:2024/12/31 - Select all (checkbox top left → "Select all conversations that match this search")
- Forward them to yourself or your accountant
- Or download each PDF manually (yes, this sucks)
There's no bulk download in Gmail. You have to open each email and save the attachment. One by one.
I know.
The "I value my time" method
This is why I built ReceiptBot.
Connect your Gmail, pick a date range, and it finds all your Stripe receipts (plus 50+ other vendors) in about 30 seconds. No manual searching. No clicking through emails. No missing that one receipt from March.
TL;DR
