Receipt / No Receipt Prompt

Hi everyone

 

Does square currently have the capacity to prompt and then not produce a reciept? We waste so much paper when the customer doesn't want one.

 

Thanks

Hey @OurCoffeeHouse,

 

You can absolutely do this!

 

1. From the main menu, go to "Settings"

2. Select "Printers"

3. Click on the printer station in use

4. Scroll down to the option "Automatically Print Receipts" and switch it off

5. Press "Save"

 

Now when you go to the receipt screen there should be a "Print Receipt" button that you can press to print a receipt, rather than a receipt being automatically printed very time ๐Ÿ‘

Hi there, @WatsonZayd,

 

For clarification, did you see Seamus' post on this board about how to automatically stop receipts from printing? Is there a specific feature that you are not seeing or looking to add in?

If you're asking for advice on how to request a receipt or handle situations where a receipt might be needed, here's a prompt you can use:

---

"Hi there,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to follow up on our recent transaction/purchase [provide details if necessary].

Would it be possible for you to provide a receipt for the transaction? Having a receipt would help me keep accurate records for my records/tax purposes/expense reimbursement [choose the appropriate reason].

If you have the receipt readily available, could you please send it to me via email or mail it to my address? Alternatively, if you can provide the necessary information, I can also generate a receipt myself.

Thank you very much for your assistance with this matter. Please let me know if you need any additional information from my end.

Best regards,
[Your Name]"

If you have a receipt, keep it in a safe place for potential returns or warranty claims. Without a receipt, check if the store can provide a duplicate or use alternative proof of purchase like bank statements. Some retailers offer digital receipts that can be accessed online or through email. Additionally, consider registering products online for easier tracking and support. Finally, for larger purchases, consider purchasing extended warranties or insurance plans for added protection.

When it comes to keeping track of expenses, having a receipt can be invaluable. Not only does it serve as proof of purchase, but it also helps with budgeting and accounting. With a receipt in hand, you can easily reference details like the date of purchase, items bought, and the amount spent, making it simpler to reconcile expenses at the end of the month or for tax purposes. Additionally, some businesses may require a receipt for returns or exchanges, ensuring a smoother transaction process. However, in cases where a receipt Info is not available, keeping detailed records or using digital payment methods can serve as alternatives to maintain financial clarity and accountability. Whether it's for personal finances or business dealings, the importance of receipts in managing expenses cannot be overstated.

When you encounter a "Receipt / No Receipt" prompt during a transaction, you can choose whether to print or email a receipt for the customer. Selecting "Receipt" provides one, while "No Receipt" skips it. For more details on handling this, use "no login ChatGPT " for instant guidance without signing in.

Yes, Square does have the option to prompt for a receipt and allow the customer to decline it, helping to save paper. You can enable the receipt prompt in your Square settings, and when processing a payment, Square will ask the customer if they want a printed receipt. If they decline, no receipt will be printed. This feature can be customized based on your business needs to reduce paper waste. lolmmr hope you like this .

Yes, Square does offer options to avoid wasting paper when customers don't want a receipt. Last week, I purchased one for my netflix website. Square terminals and point-of-sale (POS) systems have a feature that allows businesses to prompt customers to choose how they want their receipt (e.g., printed, emailed, or no receipt) before generating one. If the customer selects "no receipt," the system does not print one, saving paper.
