Masareef: your spending, logged on its own

What gets logged from ICBC

  • Card payments in shops and online, in yuan 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 ICBC spending automatically

  1. Install Masareef from Google Play or the App Store, and create a free account to back up your records.
  2. On Android: open Masareef and allow "Notification access" once. After that it captures alerts even with the app closed.
  3. On iPhone: from iOS 27 add the ready-made automation in Shortcuts; from iOS 16.4 to 26 set up one automation for ICBC texts (sender ICBC) once.
  4. Make sure ICBC texts reach your phone and your messages app's notifications are on: Masareef reads the message you already receive and never contacts the bank.
  5. On the first transaction ICBC sends an alert, and Masareef logs it with its amount, merchant and time.
  6. 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 ICBC

On Android

Let Masareef read notifications once. From then on every ICBC payment text that shows up in your notifications 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 ICBC Mobile Banking app, ICBC text messages and Apple Pay alerts.

From iOS 16.4 to 26, SMS from ICBC 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.
