1. Eliminate "Emailing Files to Yourself"

Many professionals still email documents to their own inbox just to open them on their phone. Convertly’s built-in QR transfer feature generates a temporary, encrypted QR code on your monitor that beams the converted file straight to your phone camera quickly and securely.

2. Batch Combine Monthly Receipts
