Payment receipt generator

Writes the amount received in words using lakh and crore for PKR, so the figure cannot be quietly altered by adding a digit.

In short

A payment receipt is written proof that money was received. This generator records who paid, how, when and for what, prints the amount in numbers and in words, and exports a PDF or an image you can send on WhatsApp. It runs in your browser and uploads nothing.

How to use it

  1. Add your logo and business details.
  2. Enter who paid, the date received and the payment method.
  3. List what the payment was for, with the amount.
  4. Check the amount in words on the preview.
  5. Download the PDF or the PNG image.

How it calculates

Each line’s amount is its quantity multiplied by its rate, and the subtotal is the sum of the lines. Sums are done in whole paisa (or pence or cents), so the figures add up exactly. The total is written in words using lakh and crore for PKR, and thousand, million and billion for GBP, EUR, USD and AED.

A receipt records money already received, so the total is simply the sum of the lines you enter. Tax is off by default; add a rate only if the amount received includes tax that you want shown separately.

In the example above, the lines work out as 1 × 70,000 = 70,000.00. The subtotal is 70,000.00. The total is 70,000.00, written as “Seventy thousand rupees only”.

Who should use it

  • Shops, landlords, tutors and service providers who take payments and want to give proof
  • Anyone who receives cash or transfers and needs a tidy record to hand over
  • Businesses that send receipts as images over WhatsApp

Who should not use this

  • Anyone who needs a tax invoice — use the invoice generator instead
  • Organisations that must issue receipts from a controlled, pre-numbered book for audit
  • Anyone expecting this to verify that a payment actually arrived; it records what you type

Limitations

  • A receipt made here is only as reliable as the details typed into it. The tool cannot check a payment.
  • There is no sheet export, because a receipt has no line-item table worth editing in a spreadsheet.
  • Nothing is uploaded or stored on a server. Clearing your browser data also removes the saved profile.

Common questions

Is a receipt the same as an invoice?
No. An invoice asks for payment; a receipt confirms payment was made. If you need to request money, use the invoice generator.
Why does the receipt include the amount in words?
Because it is harder to alter than digits. It is a common safeguard on cheques and receipts in Pakistan.
Can I number my receipts?
Yes. Enter a receipt number; after a download the tool suggests the next number in the series the next time you open it in this browser.
