Log your Bank Hapoalim spending automatically
Masareef reads the payment alert the Bank Hapoalim app sends to your phone and logs every transaction in its own Bank Hapoalim wallet, with its amount, merchant and time. No typing.

What gets logged from Bank Hapoalim
- Card payments in shops and online, in shekels 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.
- More than one card? Add each card's last 4 digits and every alert goes to that card's wallet.
An alert the app can't read clearly isn't lost: it waits for you to confirm it with one tap.
How to log Bank Hapoalim spending automatically
- Install Masareef from Google Play or the App Store, and create a free account to back up your records.
- On Android: open Masareef and allow "Notification access" once. After that it captures alerts even with the app closed.
- On iPhone: from iOS 27 add the ready-made automation in Shortcuts; from iOS 16.4 to 26 set up one automation for Bank Hapoalim texts (sender HAPOALIM) once.
- Make sure alerts from the Bank Hapoalim app are switched on on your phone: Masareef reads the alert you already receive and never contacts the bank.
- On the first transaction Bank Hapoalim sends an alert, and Masareef logs it with its amount, merchant and time.
- Wrong category? Open the transaction and change it, and turn on "Remember this merchant" so this merchant goes there from now on. An unclear alert waits in "To review" for one tap to confirm.
How it works with Bank Hapoalim
On Android
Let Masareef read notifications once. From then on every payment alert from the Bank Hapoalim app is logged on its own, even with the app closed.
On iPhone and iPad
On iOS 27 or later you add one ready-made automation in the Shortcuts app, and Masareef receives alerts from the ניהול החשבון - בנק הפועלים app, Bank Hapoalim text messages and Apple Pay alerts.
From iOS 16.4 to 26, SMS from Bank Hapoalim reach Masareef through an automation you set up once, and from iOS 17 a second one adds Apple Pay. The bank app's own alerts can't be read before iOS 27, so share the message with Masareef or paste it.
