What to include in a receipt template

  • Business name and contact details
  • Receipt number and receipt date
  • Customer name where relevant
  • What payment relates to
  • Amount paid and payment method
  • Reference or transaction ID if available
  • GST breakdown if GST applied to the sale

Receipt vs invoice

An invoice asks for payment. A receipt confirms the payment has already been made. Businesses often create confusion by sending a second invoice when what the customer actually needs is a receipt.
