With Familia, the person who pays keeps their personal Pro account and also opens a shared family account. In that account every member scans and sees the family's receipts, each with their own sign-in. This guide walks you through every step, button by button, from turning on the plan to leaving the family.
Good to know first
- Your profile opens when you tap your photo at the top right of the Home screen.
- The account switcher opens when you tap the facturillo logo at the top left of Home.
- Each person can belong to only one family account.
1. Turn on the Familia plan
The person who will pay for the subscription turns it on. There are two ways in:
From your personal account, tap your photo at the top right of Home. In your profile, under ACCOUNT, tap the Subscriptions row (the banner with the logo). The plans screen opens.
At the top, under the title, there is a selector with two options: PRO and FAMILY. Tap FAMILY to see what the plan includes.
Tap the button pinned at the bottom. If you have never subscribed it says Subscribe (or the number of free days, if the store offers you a trial). If you are already Pro, it says Upgrade to Family. Payment is completed in the App Store or Google Play.
The other way in: tap the facturillo logo at the top left of Home and, in the Accounts sheet, under FAMILY, tap Create your family. The same plans screen opens, already on FAMILY.
2. Set up your family
When the purchase finishes, facturillo creates the family account and opens the guided setup. It takes a few steps:
On the Your family is ready welcome, tap Let's go!
On Your family, type the name in Family name and add a photo if you like. The Continue button turns on once there is a name.
Decide whether the family joins Puntos Facturillo: Let’s go! joins, and everyone's Puntos add up in one family pool. Skip benefits carries on without joining.
On How it works you read what each role does (Owner, Administrator and Member). Tap Continue.
On Invite, tap Invite as administrator or Invite as member to share the link or QR code. When you are finished, tap Done. If you would rather invite later, tap Later.
On All set you see the summary (name, Family Puntos and invites). Tap Go to my family to open Your Family Plan, the list of the family's features.
If you leave the setup halfway, pick it up again from the Accounts sheet: under FAMILY you will see Set up your family.
3. Invite your family, or join one
To invite later, switch to the family account (section 4 of this guide), tap your photo at the top right and open Members. The full steps are in Invite members to your family account. While nobody has joined yet, Home also shows an Invite members button.
If you were the one invited:
Open the link you were sent (or scan the QR code). If you are not signed in yet, facturillo asks you to sign in first.
You will see INVITATION · FAMILY, who invited you and the role you join with (As admin or As member). Tap Join. If you do not want to, tap Decline: the link still works if you change your mind.
Once you join, facturillo shows a short welcome. Tap Let's go!, read how the roles work and tap Continue.
If the owner has not finished setting up the family yet, the app tells you that you joined, and the family appears in your account switcher once the owner finishes. Until then, the Accounts sheet shows it as Your family is being created.
4. Switch between your personal and family accounts
On Home, tap the facturillo logo at the top left (it has a small down arrow beside it).
In the Accounts sheet, tap your family's name under FAMILY. The logo changes to the family mark and the app changes colors so you know where you are.
To go back, open Accounts again and tap your own name under YOUR ACCOUNT.
Your personal receipts stay yours alone. Whatever is in the family account is visible to all its members. More detail in Switch between your accounts.
5. Who can do what
Owner: pays for the subscription and controls the family, and keeps their personal Pro account. Only the owner can renew the subscription or close the family.
Administrator: invites and manages members, and edits the budget and Points.
Member: scans and organizes the shared account's receipts.
To change someone's role, the owner or an administrator opens Members, taps that person's card and, in Manage Access, picks Administrator or Member.
6. Add receipts to the family
Switch to the family account and scan as usual with the QR icon button at the bottom right of Home. The receipt lands in the family and everyone can see it. If it is your first time, follow Scan your first receipt ›
To bring in receipts you already had in your personal account: with the family account active, tap your photo at the top right, then Add my invoices. Select the receipts and tap Add.
7. The family's features and where to find them
The whole list is in Your Family Plan: with the family account active, tap your photo at the top right, then Family Functionality. Tap any row to see how it works. Home also shows Get to know your family account once someone else is in the family, until you have opened one of them. While you are the only member, whoever manages the family sees Invite members there instead.
Shared receipts: everyone scans into one account. You find them in the Receipts tab of the bottom bar.
Members & invites and Roles & permissions: in your profile, Members.
Account switching: the facturillo logo on Home.
Family pockets: in the family account's Pockets tab, create pockets for groceries, home or the car, assign receipts and set a budget.
Family points: if the family takes part in Puntos Facturillo, every scanned receipt adds to the same pool. You redeem them in the Rewards tab.
The family also gets these Pro features, each with its own row in Your Family Plan: Pocket analytics & limits, AI Assistant, Email invoices with AI, Recurring expenses, Custom categories, Receipt attachments, Multi-currency support, More, bigger baskets, Prices Near Me and Category goals. What the plan includes and leaves out is in The Familia plan and its features.
8. Leave the family, remove someone, or close it
Leave: with the family account active, open Members and tap the three dots at the top right. Tap Leave the family and confirm with Leave. The owner does not see this option: their menu only shows Close the family. You lose access, the receipts you added move to your personal account, and you can rejoin anytime.
Remove someone (owner or administrator): in Members, tap their card, choose Remove from the family and confirm with Remove. Their receipts move to their personal account and the person shows up under Past Members. From there you can tap them and choose Restore Access as Administrator or Member.
Close the family (owner only): in Members, tap the three dots, choose Close the family and confirm with Yes, close. It is permanent: everyone loses access and each person's receipts move to their personal account.
Closing the family does not cancel the payment
The subscription is cancelled separately, in the store. See Manage your subscription ›
9. If the subscription lapses
The family account goes read-only: everyone can see the receipts, but nobody can add or edit. Home shows the Read-only mode notice. The owner taps it and chooses Renew subscription. The steps are in My family account went read-only.
