Frequently asked questions
What should a payment receipt include?
The amount received, what it’s against (an invoice or agreement), the method and date, and whether the balance is now clear. Linking it to an invoice number keeps everyone’s records aligned.
When should I send a payment receipt?
Send one as soon as a payment lands, especially for part-payments or cash. It confirms receipt, shows the remaining balance, and reassures the payer the money arrived.
