I know I could just create a manual account, but would any one else like to have a ‘Gift Card’ section to record all those random amounts amassed/forgotten about over the years?

Do you mean manually record these or somehow import the balance?

Perfect scenario would be an importing option.

Other option would be to create a subsection within ‘Everyday’ alongside ‘Current’ and ‘Cards’ to manually add.

A lot of birthday vouchers that have fallen down the back of the sofa!

I get 3-4% discount on Tesco, Sainsburys and Waitrose gift card topups, so a lot of my spending is through gift cards now.

I’d like a manual account for each gift card that has:

Default merchant data for every transaction I add to the account

A quick topup button with a default amount (I always top up the cards by the same amount)

A quick add transaction button that uses default data and all I have to do is enter the amount. Currently, I keep my receipts and add them manually into Emma, but it would be better to have a super quick way to enter the spend.
