Question 1

What's the difference between a receipt and an invoice?

Accepted Answer

An invoice requests payment; a receipt confirms payment was already received. Use this generator once you've been paid — for requesting payment, use the invoice generator instead.

Question 2

Is this receipt generator really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Creating and downloading a receipt costs nothing, with no usage limits and no credit card required.

Question 3

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. Fill in your receipt below and download it immediately — no signup, no email required.

Question 4

Does it calculate Canadian sales tax?

Accepted Answer

Yes — set your customer's province and the correct GST/HST/PST/QST combination is applied automatically, matching what was actually charged.
