Managing receipts

At the end of a sales transaction, you can offer to print, email, or text the customer's receipt. You can also print a gift receipt, which is proof of purchase but doesn't contain the amount spent.

Note

If the email account that your customer uses to check out is the same email that they use for their Shop account, then their receipt automatically populates in their Shop app.

If a customer loses their receipt, then you can reprint it for them.

Order numbers and receipt numbers aren't the same, and receipt numbers include the POS register ID as a prefix. For example, order number #1425 in the Orders list might have the associated receipt number of #1-1288. However, you can still search by receipt number in your Orders list. Learn more about searching for orders.

Note

In some situations, orders placed from the POS app display in the Orders list as the register ID prefix and receipt number (for example, #1-1005 or #2-1013) instead of a typical order number. These situations include when a POS order is completed offline, or when a POS order is completed without payment (the total paid by the customer is $0).

The Payment successful screen displays after you've taken payment for an order. From the Payment successful screen, you have a few options:
