What is a receipt generator?
A receipt generator is a tool that creates professional PDF receipts for completed transactions. It includes business logo support, auto-calculation, smart autocomplete, payment method tracking, and supports 50+ world currencies. All data stays private in your browser.
How is a receipt different from an invoice?
Receipts confirm payment already received (proof of purchase), while invoices request payment for future due dates. Receipts show payment method and transaction date, while invoices show due dates and payment terms. Use receipts for immediate sales, invoices for billing.
Does it automatically calculate totals and taxes?
Yes! The receipt generator auto-calculates item totals, subtotals, individual item taxes (per line), total tax amount, and grand total in real-time as you type. No manual calculations needed - everything updates instantly.
Can I save businesses and customers for reuse?
Absolutely! The tool automatically saves all businesses and customers you enter with full details (name, email, phone, address). Use autocomplete to quickly select saved entries. Manage, edit, or delete saved data anytime via the 'Manage Data' button.
How does the business logo feature work?
Upload your business logo (up to 500KB) and it's automatically saved with that specific business. When you select a business from autocomplete, its logo loads automatically. The logo appears centered at the top of your PDF receipts with proper aspect ratio.
What payment methods can I select?
The receipt generator supports multiple payment methods: Cash, Credit Card, Debit Card, Check, Bank Transfer, Mobile Payment, and Other. Your payment method preference is automatically saved for future receipts.
Can I view my receipt history?
Yes! Click the 'History' button to see your last 50 receipts with full details. You can load any previous receipt to reuse or modify it, or delete individual receipts. The history includes receipt numbers, dates, customers, payment methods, and amounts.
Does the item autocomplete remember descriptions and prices?
Yes! As you add items, the tool saves descriptions with their prices (up to 50 items). When you type an item description, autocomplete suggests saved items with prices. Select one to auto-fill both description and price instantly for faster receipt creation.
Is my receipt data stored or uploaded anywhere?
No! The receipt generator works entirely in your browser using localStorage. No data is uploaded to any server. Your business info, customer details, logos, and receipt history stay completely private and secure on your device only.
How are receipt numbers generated?
The tool auto-generates random 8-digit receipt numbers in format REC-12345678. Click the refresh icon to generate a new number anytime. You can also manually edit the receipt number to match your preferred numbering system or format.
Is my data safe and secure?
Yes, absolutely! This tool runs entirely in your browser. All data processing happens locally on your device - nothing is uploaded to our servers. Your files and data never leave your computer, ensuring complete privacy and security.
