BEYOND THE RECEIPT
What is a digital receipt platform?
A digital receipt platform is software that replaces or supplements paper receipts at checkout with a digital version delivered via email, SMS, or mobile app. It enables retailers to include personalized marketing content — such as offers, loyalty messaging, and product recommendations — within the receipt itself, turning a routine transaction into an active customer engagement channel. Shoppers are asking for it: a Green America survey reported by Retail Dive found that 89 percent of respondents would like retailers to offer digital receipts as an option.
Transform paper receipts into digital customer touchpoints that drive engagement and loyalty. Our digital receipt solution offers email receipt delivery, mobile app connectivity, enhanced customer engagement opportunities, and sustainable paperless solutions that create new digital marketing opportunities for your business.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions About Digital Receipts
How do digital receipts increase customer loyalty?
Digital receipts increase customer loyalty by delivering personalized offers and loyalty rewards at the moment a customer is most engaged — immediately after a purchase. Because the receipt is opened by the vast majority of recipients, it provides a high-visibility channel for loyalty program enrollment, targeted promotions, and repeat visit incentives.
Can digital receipts integrate with existing loyalty programs?
Yes. Ecrebo’s digital receipt platform integrates with existing loyalty programs to deliver points updates, tier status, and targeted reward offers directly within the receipt. No separate app or customer registration is required at checkout.
What is the environmental impact of switching to digital receipts?
Switching to digital receipts reduces paper usage by up to 80%. For high-volume grocery retailers, this represents a significant reduction in thermal paper consumption and the associated environmental costs. Digital receipts also eliminate BPA exposure from thermal paper, which is an increasing regulatory concern in UK and European retail.
