Everything you type stays on your own device; nothing is uploaded to a server.
A receipt is a document confirming that payment has been received for goods or services. Unlike an invoice — which requests payment — a receipt is proof that payment already happened. It protects both sides: the customer has evidence of what they paid for and when, and the business has a record for bookkeeping and tax purposes.
A consistent numbering system (e.g. RCT-0001, RCT-0002) makes it easy to track payments, match receipts to the original invoice or sale, and stay organized for bookkeeping and tax season. This tool generates a suggested receipt number automatically, but you're free to edit it to match your own numbering scheme.
Recording how a customer paid — cash, card, bank transfer, cheque, or an online payment service — is standard practice on a receipt. It helps with reconciling your books against bank or payment processor statements, and gives the customer a clear record for their own expense tracking.
Not every payment covers the full amount owed. If a customer pays only part of the total, enter the actual amount received — the receipt will automatically show the remaining balance and mark itself "Partial Payment" instead of "Paid in Full," so there's no ambiguity about what's still owed.
An invoice is sent before payment, requesting money for goods or services already delivered. A receipt is issued after payment, confirming it was received. If you haven't been paid yet, use our Invoice Generator instead — once payment comes in, issue this receipt as proof.
