A receipt is evidence, not a request
The distinction from an invoice is the whole point. An invoice asks for money and shows an amount due; a receipt confirms money arrived and shows an amount paid. A document that shows a balance outstanding is not a receipt, which is why this one marks the total as paid in full and records the method and date.
That evidence is what makes expenses claimable. For a business expense deduction or a reimbursement, you generally need proof of the payment itself, not just the bill — the date, the amount, what it was for and who received it. A receipt missing the payment method is noticeably weaker if anyone ever queries it.
Receipts matter most in the awkward cases. Cash payments leave no bank trail at all. Rent between private parties is routinely disputed years later. Marketplace and private sales have no processor record to fall back on. In each of those, a dated receipt naming both parties is the only thing standing between you and someone's memory.
Keep the numbering sequential here too. If you issue receipts regularly, an unbroken series makes your records auditable and makes it obvious if one is missing. RCP-0001 upward works; the format matters far less than the consistency.
How long to keep them varies: broadly six years in the UK, and three to seven in the US depending on the situation. Because this tool stores nothing, download the PDF and file it somewhere you actually back up.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a receipt and an invoice?
An invoice is issued before payment and requests it, showing an amount due. A receipt is issued after payment and proves it, showing the amount paid and how. Use this tool's toggle to produce either from the same details.
What should a payment receipt include?
The date payment was received, the amount, the payment method, what it was for, and the names of both parties. A unique receipt number and any tax charged make it stronger. All of those are fields here.
Is a handwritten receipt valid?
Generally yes — no jurisdiction requires receipts to be typed. But a printed one is legible, harder to dispute and easier to file, and takes less time than writing one out.
Can I use this for rent receipts?
Yes. Put the tenant as the payer, the period covered in the line description, and the method in the paid-by field. Rent paid in cash is exactly the case where a receipt is worth having, since there is no bank record.
How long should I keep receipts?
In the UK, six years from the end of the relevant accounting period for most business records. In the US, the IRS generally says three years, extending to six or longer in some situations. Since nothing is stored here, download and back up the PDF.
