ElecTracker works with SMS notifications and statements from all major SA banks, including FNB, Standard Bank, Absa, Nedbank, Capitec, Bank Zero, Investec, and TymeBank. It also reads municipal prepaid vouchers, till receipts, and online purchase confirmations from retailers like Clicks.
The units are already in the confirmation message. Standard Bank writes them after a U, for example Amt: R250.00 U: 63.40kWh, which means R250.00 bought 63.40 kilowatt-hours. Paste that message into ElecTracker and it records the amount, the units and the cost per kWh, and keeps the history so you can see the rate change.

Your purchases are saved to your own account in Cloud Firestore, so your history is waiting when you sign in on another device. Security rules scope every record to your user ID, so no other user can read it.
Yes, completely free. No ads and no premium tier. You do need a free account, using email or Google sign-in, so your history syncs across your devices.
ElecTracker divides the electricity amount (excluding service fees and VAT where applicable) by the number of units purchased to give you the true cost per kilowatt-hour.
Yes. ElecTracker identifies purchases by meter number, so you can paste SMS messages from different meters and view each one separately.
If you do not have the original SMS, you can add a purchase manually by entering the date, amount, units, and meter number directly.
