What a payment receipt should show

Who received the money and who paid it
Receipt number and the date the money arrived
The amount, in figures and in words
How it was paid — UPI, bank transfer, cheque, cash
A reference, such as the invoice number it settles
Any balance still outstanding

Why bother sending one

Most people send "received, thanks" on WhatsApp and leave it there. A receipt takes thirty seconds, gives your client's accounts team the document they need, and keeps your own records clean. It also quietly signals that you run a proper business.

Common mistakes

No reference to the invoice being settled
Not recording the payment method
Forgetting to show the remaining balance on a part payment

Questions

Is a receipt the same as an invoice?

No. An invoice asks for money. A receipt confirms money that has already been received.

Do I need a receipt voucher under GST?

A registered supplier receiving an advance is generally required to issue a receipt voucher. Check the current requirement with your CA.

Is this really free?

Yes. Every document type, all eight templates and unlimited documents are free, and you do not need an account to make your first one.

This page is general information, not tax or legal advice. Rules change and what applies depends on your business — confirm anything important with your CA.
