Introduction to RECEIPT

What is RECEIPT?

RECEIPT replaces paper receipts with legally compliant digital receipts that customers access via QR code, email, or link. No app download or account creation required — receipts are viewed in the browser at receipt.fiskaly.com.

📘RECEIPT is optional

Unlike SIGN (which is legally required for fiscal compliance), RECEIPT is an optional product. It adds value by reducing paper waste and improving customer experience, but it is not a regulatory obligation.

Do you need RECEIPT?

Scenario	Recommendation
You want to reduce or eliminate paper receipts	Yes — RECEIPT replaces paper with digital
You need fiscal signing for POS transactions	No — that is SIGN, not RECEIPT
You want end-to-end audit trail from signing to receipt delivery	Use RECEIPT + SIGN together
You only issue B2B invoices	No — use E-INVOICE instead

How it works

1. Your POS sends transaction data to the RECEIPT API after completing a sale
2. fiskaly generates a digital receipt with your merchant branding and all required fields
3. The customer receives the receipt via QR code (scan at POS), static code (counter display), email, or direct link
4. The receipt is hosted at receipt.fiskaly.com — immutable, always accessible, no app needed

If you also use fiskaly SIGN, RECEIPT can automatically link digital receipts to signed transactions, providing fiscal signature data and QR code validation on the receipt itself.
