About This Tool

What does a receipt generator record?

A receipt records a payment already received: the business, payer, date, items, payment method and amount. Enter your own details to create a payment record. The tool does not collect money, verify a transaction or issue a tax-system invoice. Use Invoice Generator when you need to request payment.

A4 receipt or 80 mm thermal receipt

A4 suits services and customer records; the narrow 80 mm layout suits till-style receipts. Both use the same details and totals. Download a PDF with selectable text or print just the receipt. Long receipts continue on additional pages; match the paper size and margins in your printer settings.

Discounts, tax and partial payments

Discounts apply before a single tax rate. Choose tax-exclusive prices to add tax, or tax-inclusive prices to extract the included tax. Line amounts and totals use the selected currency precision, including zero-decimal JPY and KRW. Leave amount received blank for payment in full, or enter the actual amount to show a partial payment, remaining balance or change.

Local processing and reusable drafts

Receipt details and logos are processed in your browser without being uploaded. Save draft stores one receipt on this device; Restore draft brings it back. Saving is manual and is not a cloud backup. New receipt resets the editor without deleting the saved draft. Use actual transaction details and check the output before sharing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make a receipt online?

Enter the business, receipt number and payment date, add items and payment details, then review and download the PDF or print. The total and amount received must be greater than zero.

What is the difference between a receipt and an invoice?

A receipt records payment received; an invoice requests payment. This tool creates receipts from details you enter and does not process or independently verify payments.

Can I download and print the receipt?

Yes. Download a PDF with selectable text or use Print receipt. A4 and 80 mm layouts are available; long lists may span multiple pages. Check the printer paper and margins.

Can I add my business logo?

Yes. Choose a PNG, JPG or WebP up to 2 MB. The logo is processed locally and included in the preview, PDF and print view.

Can I record a partial payment?

Yes. Enter the actual amount received. A smaller amount shows partial payment and a balance; a larger amount shows change. A blank field means paid in full. Zero received cannot be exported as a payment receipt.

How are tax and discounts calculated?

The discount is applied before tax. A single rate is added to tax-exclusive prices or extracted from tax-inclusive prices. Calculations round line amounts and totals using the selected currency precision.

Are my receipt details uploaded or saved automatically?

No. Details and logos stay in your browser, and saving is manual. Save draft stores one draft locally on this device. Clearing browser storage may remove it; downloaded PDFs are separate files.

Does this create an official tax invoice?

No. It creates a user-entered payment receipt, without tax-system issuance or transaction verification. Review your own record requirements and receipt details before using it.
