KFH payment alerts, explained

Each KFH app notification packs the amount, who you paid and which card or account into one line. Here is what each part means, and how to keep a running total without typing anything.

What the alert looks like

Format example with made-up names and numbers. Your own alerts may be worded a little differently.

Money inKFH KWD 850.000 salary credited to your account
PartIn this alertWhat it means
DirectionMoney inMoney out or money in. The word that decides it here: “salary”
AmountKWD 850What moved, in the currency of the charge.
Paid to / fromKFHThe shop or person. Card payments often show the company's registered name or the payment processor, not the shop sign.

Alerts that are not spending

KFH also sends codes, declines, reminders and offers. None of them moved money, so a tracker that counts every alert with an amount in it gets your total wrong. These are skipped:

Track KFH spending automatically

Savyit reads KFH notifications on your Android phone, the way this page reads the example: the amount, the payee and the card, sorted into a category, with codes, declines and reminders left out. There is no bank login and no account, and the alert text is never uploaded.

It runs in your browser. Nothing you paste is sent anywhere.

FAQ

Why does my KFH alert show a different name from the shop?

Card networks pass on the merchant's registered company name, which is often cut short or belongs to a payment processor (for example Square, Stripe or PayPal). Savyit learns these names: once you rename one, it's renamed for every later payment.

Does a declined KFH payment count as spending?

No. A decline, a security code or a payment reminder didn't move any money. Savyit skips them, and so does the decoder on this site.

Can an app read KFH alerts without my bank login?

Yes. Savyit reads the notifications KFH already sends to your Android phone. It never connects to KFH and never asks for your password.

Other banks in Kuwait

Savyit is not affiliated with KFH. Bank names are used only to describe their alerts. Formats change; if yours looks different, the decoder shows how it's read.
