How to Use
- 1 Enter your business information — Fill in your business name (required), address (required), email, and phone number. You can also upload an optional logo (PNG or JPG, max 2MB) that will appear on the receipt PDF. This information appears in the header of your receipt.
- 2 Add customer information — Enter your customer's name (required), with optional address and email. Receipts are simpler than invoices since they're for completed transactions, so only the customer name is required. This information appears in the "Paid By" section of the receipt.
- 3 Set receipt details — Enter the receipt number (auto-generated but editable), receipt date (defaults to today), payment date (when payment was received, defaults to today), payment method (Cash, Credit Card, Debit Card, Bank Transfer, Check, PayPal, or Other), and currency symbol (defaults to $). All of these fields are required for a complete receipt.
- 4 Add line items — Add items or services with a description, quantity, and rate. The amount is calculated automatically (quantity × rate). Use the "Add Line Item" button to add more items, and the delete button to remove items you don't need. The subtotal is calculated automatically from all line items.
- 5 Configure tax/VAT (optional) — Choose between Tax-Exclusive (tax added to subtotal) or Tax-Inclusive (tax already included in prices). Enter your tax rate as a percentage (e.g., 20 for 20%). Leave the tax rate empty if you don't need to add tax. The total is calculated automatically based on your selection.
- 6 Add optional notes and download PDF — Add optional notes for additional information (e.g., "Thank you for your purchase!"). When you're ready, click "Download PDF" to save the receipt or "Print" to print it directly. All data stays in your browser - nothing is stored or sent to servers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What information is required to create a receipt?
The required fields are: business name, business address, customer name, receipt number, receipt date, payment date, payment method, and at least one line item with a rate. All other fields (business email, business phone, customer address, customer email, logo, tax, notes) are optional but recommended for professional receipts.
What's the difference between a receipt and an invoice?
A receipt is proof of payment that has already been made, while an invoice is a request for payment. Receipts show the payment date and payment method, while invoices show the due date and payment terms. Use receipts after receiving payment, and use invoices before payment. Receipts are simpler than invoices because they document completed transactions.
How does tax-inclusive vs tax-exclusive work?
Tax-Exclusive: Tax is added on top of your line item prices. For example, a $100 item with 20% tax equals $120 total. Use this when your prices don't include tax.
Tax-Inclusive: Tax is already included in your line item prices. For example, a $120 item with 20% tax equals $100 net plus $20 tax. Use this when your prices already include tax and you need to show the breakdown.
Is my receipt data stored or sent anywhere?
All receipt data stays in your browser. Nothing is stored on servers or sent anywhere. When you upload a logo, it's converted to base64 and stored only in your browser's memory. When you close the page, all data is cleared. This ensures complete privacy for your business information.
What logo formats are supported?
Only PNG and JPEG image formats are supported for logos (max 2MB file size). These formats ensure the best PDF compatibility and quality. GIF and WebP formats are not supported because they may not render correctly in all PDF viewers. For best results, use a high-resolution PNG with a transparent background or a JPEG image.
Can I use this for professional/business receipts?
This tool generates professional-looking PDF receipts suitable for business use. However, this tool is for creating receipt documents only. It does NOT provide financial, tax, or legal advice. Ensure your receipts comply with local regulations and tax requirements. Consult a qualified accountant or tax professional for business compliance, tax calculations, and legal requirements.
