In Finland it kinda-sorta does, for some companies (mostly for things where you pay monthly). You can get your invoices directly to your banking account and even accept them automatically if you wish. And that doesn't include anything else than invoices, so not exactly what you're after. And I agree, that would be very nice.

Some companies, like one of our major grocery chain, offer to store your receipts on their online service, but I think that you can only get a copy of the receipt there and it's not machine readable.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
