Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a receipt and an invoice?+
An invoice is a request for payment, sent before money changes hands. A receipt is proof that payment has already been received. Use the same generator — just mark the document 'Receipt' and set the amount paid to match the total.
Do I need a receipt for cash sales?+
In most countries, cash transactions above a certain threshold typically require a receipt for tax record-keeping. Even for small sales, issuing a receipt protects both you and the buyer if a dispute arises later.
Can I generate a receipt for a partial payment?+
Yes — set the amount paid field to the partial sum and add a note such as 'Balance Due: $50' so both parties have a clear record of what is still owed.
What details should a valid receipt include?+
Your business name, the date of sale, a description of the goods or services, the amount paid, the payment method (cash, card, transfer), and a receipt number for your records.
Can I print the receipt instead of emailing it?+
Yes — the PDF is formatted for A4 and US Letter, so you can print it directly at the till or hand over a printed copy at the point of sale.
Is a PDF receipt accepted for tax and accounting purposes?+
Yes — most accounting software and tax authorities accept PDF receipts as valid proof of purchase, provided they show the date, amount, and description of the transaction.
