Getting started

Getting existing paperwork into MyVesta

Photograph, upload and attach documents so the paper version stops being the only copy.

Most households already have the information — it is in a drawer, an email inbox and a shoebox. The job is moving it somewhere findable.

Photographs are fine

A clear phone photo of a policy schedule is as useful as a scan. Lay the page flat, fill the frame, and check the policy number is readable before you upload.

Attach files to the record they belong to

Upload from within a record rather than dumping files in one place. Attachments live in a private storage bucket that is never publicly readable, and they inherit the same household isolation as the record itself.

  • Supported formats include PDF, JPG, PNG and HEIC.
  • Give files plain names: 'Home insurance 2026 schedule.pdf'.
  • Delete superseded versions once the new one is in — old renewal documents cause more confusion than they solve.
