Every paid transaction has a receipt that you can download as a PDF or share with your customer as a link. You get both from the transaction's actions menu on the **Transactions** page.

## Download a PDF receipt

For a successful or completed payment:

1. In the sidebar, click **Transactions** and find the transaction. See [Find a transaction](/transactions/).
2. Open the actions menu at the end of the row and choose **Download Receipt**.
3. Click **Download**.

The PDF opens in a new browser tab, where you can save or print it.

## Share a receipt with your customer

The receipt page gives you a link your customer can open without signing in to BCL:

1. Open the actions menu on the transaction and choose **View Receipt**. The receipt opens in a new tab.
2. Click **Share**. On an unpaid transaction, the button is **Share Receipt**.
3. Choose **WhatsApp** to send the receipt link in a WhatsApp message, or **Copy Link** to paste it anywhere else.

On a paid receipt, **Download PDF** next to **Share** gives you the same PDF as **Download Receipt**.

> **Tip**
> Does your customer need an invoice instead? Choose **Download Invoice** in the same menu for a PDF invoice with the latest payment status.

## Common issues

### Why is there no Download Receipt option for this transaction?

A PDF receipt is proof of payment, so BCL only offers it for Successful and Completed transactions. For other statuses, use View Receipt to see the status, or Download Invoice.

### My customers keep asking me for old receipts. Can they get them themselves?

Yes. Send them to the Customer Portal at your domain followed by /customer. They sign in with the email or phone number they paid with, using a one-time code, and see their orders and receipts from your shop.
