digital receipts

Paperless transaction proof

Digital receipts are electronic records of purchases sent via email, text, or app instead of printed on paper.

They serve the same purpose as traditional receipts—documenting transactions for returns, expense reports, or tax records—but are easier to store and search: I keep all my digital receipts in a folder for tax season.

Retailers increasingly offer them as the default option.
