Why cash needs a receipt
Cash leaves no bank record, so the receipt is often the only proof. Both people should keep a copy. Write a clear description of what was paid for and the date.
Freelancers and private sales
Selling a bike, tutoring or doing a job for cash are all good reasons to issue a receipt. Include a short description of the item or service, and a receipt number if you do this often.
Use it honestly
Make receipts that record a transaction that really happened, or that are clearly samples, mock-ups or teaching examples. Do not use a receipt to claim money, a refund or a deduction you are not owed, or to pass it off as issued by another business. Our Acceptable Use Policy explains the rules. Free downloads carry a small watermark; one credit removes it, and credit packs never expire.
