Log your BOCHK (Bank of China Hong Kong) spending automatically
Masareef reads the payment alert the BOCHK (Bank of China Hong Kong) app sends to your phone and logs every transaction in its own BOCHK (Bank of China Hong Kong) wallet, with its amount, merchant and time. No typing.

What gets logged from BOCHK (Bank of China Hong Kong)
- Card payments in shops and online, in dollars or any currency you paid in.
- Outgoing and incoming transfers, and ATM withdrawals.
- Every transaction lands in its own category, and one tap changes it.
