Track HDFC Credit Card Transactions: Sheets & Telegram Alerts

This n8n workflow solves the challenge of managing credit card expenses transparently by automating the capture, logging, and notification of HDFC transactions. It monitors Gmail for alerts from HDFC Bank, parses key details like amount, merchant, date, and card type, then appends them to a structured Google Sheet for easy record-keeping. Simultaneously, it dispatches a Telegram message to your spouse with all transaction specifics for real-time awareness.

Ideal for couples seeking shared financial oversight, individuals automating personal finance, or HDFC users with email alerts enabled. Benefits include time savings from manual entry, reduced errors in tracking, and enhanced family communication on spending—promoting better budgeting without constant check-ins.

Setup is straightforward: connect Gmail, create a sheet with columns (Date, Amount, Merchant, etc.), set up a Telegram bot, and configure nodes for parsing. No coding required, leveraging n8n's Gmail Trigger, HTML/Regex extraction, Sheets append, and Telegram send—making it accessible for non-technical users while scalable for multiple cards.
