Your bank statement speaks in code. Sho translates.

Charges show up under names you don't recognise, spread across cards and debit orders. Sho works out what each one really is.

Examples use made-up company names.

See everything you pay for, then get warned in time.

No forms to fill in. Use whichever way in is easiest for you. We're building Sho with our pilot group, so some of this arrives during the pilot.

Municipal bills, checked line by line.

Forward your municipal statement or snap the bill. Sho compares every line with your usual: water, electricity, rates, refuse. It flags anything strange before you pay.

  • Spots jumps, duplicate charges and new lines
  • Warns you when readings keep being estimated
  • Monthly meter photo reminders, for your own proof
  • A ready-written query letter when something's wrong

We only want the repeat charges. Nothing else.

Sho is built so we never hold more about your money than we need.

No bank login

We never ask for your banking password or connect to your accounts.

Balances thrown away

From alerts, SMSs and screenshots we keep who you paid, how much and when. Balances and the files themselves are deleted.

Delete everything, any time

One button removes your account and all your data straight away.

Join the Johannesburg pilot.

We're opening Sho to a small group first. It's free during the pilot, and your feedback shapes what we build.

  • Free for everyone in the pilot
  • Half price for life on the paid version, as a thank-you
  • No card needed, nothing to cancel
  • We'll email you when your spot opens

Founder, Johannesburg

I'm building Sho because I couldn't say for sure what I was subscribed to. Receipts were lost in my inbox and debit orders on my statement. If that sounds familiar, I'd love your help getting it right.

Questions people ask

Do I have to connect my bank account?

No. Sho works from receipts you forward, alerts, SMSs and screenshots you choose to share, and things you add yourself. We never ask for banking logins.

What happens to my screenshots and statements?

We read them once to find repeat charges, keep only who you paid, how much and when, and delete the file straight away. Balances and other transactions are never stored.

Which municipal bills can Sho read?

We're starting with the City of Johannesburg (including City Power), then Tshwane, Ekurhuleni, eThekwini and Cape Town. Each city switches on once we've tested it on real bills. Sho needs about three months of bills before it can tell what's unusual for you.

What does it cost?

Nothing during the pilot. After it, there'll be a free version and an optional paid one, and everyone in the pilot gets the paid version at half price for life. You'll never be charged without choosing to pay.

When can I start?

We're inviting people in small groups so we can help everyone properly. Join the pilot and we'll email you when your spot opens.
