Receipts for rent
Landlords should give a receipt for any rent paid in cash or by money order, and many states require it. Put the month and unit on the line item and the payment method in the notes. A receipt for a payment you already invoiced should reference the invoice number.
Frequently asked questions
Is this receipt generator free?
Yes. There is no account, no watermark, and nothing is stored. It runs in your browser; print the receipt or choose Save as PDF in the print dialog.
What should a receipt include?
The date, who paid and who received, what the payment was for, the amount, and how it was paid. A unique receipt number makes it easy to find later.
Can I use this as a rent receipt?
Yes. Add a line for the month’s rent, such as “October rent, 42 Oak St Unit 3”, and put the payment method in the notes. Keep a copy for your records.
What is the difference between a receipt and an invoice?
An invoice asks for payment. A receipt confirms payment was made. Use the invoice generator to bill and this tool to confirm.
