Electronic receipt

The electronic receipt or e-receipt is an electronic receipt of any product or service that was purchased.

1. Overview

An electronic receipt is a digital certificate issued by a business to a consumer, transmitting transaction information to the consumer's digital device (smartphone, PC, etc.). South Korea is the first in the world to commercialize mobile electronic receipts, and The Real Co., Ltd. has been developing and providing electronic receipt services domestically since 2014.

Mandates

In January 2019, a California assemblyman introduced a proposed bill that would prohibit businesses from issuing customers paper receipts unless they explicitly request one.
