Turn this receipt maker into an app of your own: each payment you record gets the next receipt number, is linked to its invoice, and updates what the client still owes. It starts from the Invoices starting point, and you keep changing it by asking in plain English.
Click "Turn it into my app". The Invoices starting point is picked, and your first message already asks for payments and numbered receipts.
Refinar builds the app with sign-in and a real database in about a minute. Make an invoice in the live preview, record a part payment, and see the receipt and the balance.
Ask for what your business needs in plain sentences. When you launch, the code and the database are yours, and Refinar hosts the app.
A receipt is proof that money changed hands, so it needs to stand on its own if anyone asks later. Put your name or business name and contact at the top, a receipt number and the date, then who paid you, the amount and currency, what the payment was for, and how it was paid: cash, card, bank transfer or cheque.
If the payment is a deposit or one part of a larger bill, say so in "Payment for" and mention the quote or invoice number, so both of you can match it later. Sign it, especially for cash. The receipt maker above has each of these fields; it does not list items or tax lines, which belong on the invoice.
When a client pays half up front, give them a receipt for that half straight away, naming the job. When the rest arrives, give a second receipt and, if you sent an invoice, check that the two add up to its total.
That matching is the tedious part on paper. In your own app every payment is recorded against its invoice, so the invoice shows partly paid and the balance due until the last payment lands.
A receipt confirms you were paid. An invoice asks to be paid, and a quote states a price before the work. The same generator makes all three: the free invoice generator opens on the invoice, and the quote template on the quote.
Make receipts only for payments you really received. A receipt for money that never changed hands, or a copy of another shop's receipt, is not what this tool is for.
Fill in your details, who paid, the amount, what it was for and the payment method. The number and today's date are filled in for you. Then click "Download PDF or print", choose "Save as PDF", and send the file or hand over the printed copy with your signature.
No. This is a payment receipt: who paid, how much and what for. For a list of items with tax, make an invoice from the same details and mark it paid, or in your own app ask for a sales receipt with item lines.
It should have one, in order, so each payment can be told apart and matched to its invoice. The receipt maker starts the number with RCT- and you can change it. In the app, numbers are given for you and never repeat.
It is free and needs no account. What you type stays in this browser and is never sent to a server, so you can come back to a receipt you started.
You create a Refinar account, and it builds an app from the Invoices starting point that records payments and keeps receipts, invoices and clients in a database. Building and changing it uses credits from your plan; prices are on the pricing page. For a different app, describe it to the AI app builder.
