About Receipt Generator

A receipt generator creates a proof-of-payment receipt as a downloadable PDF - the document you give someone to confirm that money has been received. You record who paid, what for, the amount and any tax, and the totals compute as you type before the PDF is drawn in your browser and saved. A receipt is issued after payment, unlike an invoice which requests it, and it is what a customer keeps for their records, their expenses or their warranty. Whether you are a small trader, a landlord acknowledging rent, or anyone who has taken a cash payment and needs to hand over proof, this produces a clean receipt in a minute - and because it runs entirely in this tab, the payment details stay between you and the payer.

Using Receipt Generator

  1. Enter your details in the From box and the payer's in the Received From box.
  2. Add a line for each item paid for, with quantity and price; the totals update instantly.
  3. Add tax if it applied, choose a currency, and use the notes for a payment method or a thank-you.
  4. Download the receipt PDF, generated on your device, ready to hand or email over.

Where receipt generator helps

Payment for a completed service

For a paid 75 service charge, record one line at 75 and put the actual payment date and method in the receipt. Generate it only after confirming payment; an invoice requesting the same amount is a different document.

A cash-sale receipt

A trader who took a cash payment issues a receipt as proof, itemising what was bought and the total paid.

Questions about Receipt Generator

When do I use a receipt instead of an invoice?

A receipt is issued after payment as proof it was received; an invoice is issued before, to request payment. This tool makes receipts; the invoice generator makes invoices.

Is it valid proof of payment?

It is a clear, itemised record of a payment you confirm was received. Keep your own copy alongside the one you give the payer.

Is it free?

Yes - no account, no fee. The PDF is generated on your device.
