The digital receipt
With digital receipts, your customers receive their receipts immediately on their smartphone. This saves costs on paper and other printed materials, is environmentally friendly as it conserves resources and avoids waste, and offers convenience as the receipts are permanently readable and available at any time.
In this article we will show you how to make the settings for the digital receipt. There are several ways to use the digital receipt:
- set the digital receipt as the default for the action after invoice creation (i.e. the digital receipt by default)
- use the digital receipt as standard after invoicing with a specific payment method
