Digital Receipt
An electronic version of a purchase receipt, either received digitally or created by scanning a paper receipt.
More Details
Digital receipts are accepted by virtually all tax authorities worldwide as valid proof of purchase. They offer advantages over paper: they don't fade, are instantly searchable, take up no physical space, and can be automatically matched to expense records. Best practice is to digitize paper receipts immediately upon receiving them.
