proof of purchase

Transaction verification document

Proof of purchase is documentation showing you bought something—typically a receipt, but also a UPC code, packing slip, or credit card statement.

Manufacturers require proof of purchase for rebates, warranties, or returns: Save your proof of purchase in case you need to exchange it.

The phrase treats any acceptable evidence as equivalent.
