Looking for an easy-to-use point-of-sale (POS) system that comes with paper receipt printing capabilities?

Read on to find out how to turn your paper receipts into opportunities to further market your brand and make a great lasting impression on your customers.

What are receipts used for?

When your customers pay for something you’re selling, you give them a receipt. Receipts act as proof of purchase for your business and your customers to help with:

• Accounting

• Inventory management

• Processing refunds or reimbursements

What goes on a sales receipt?

1. Your business name, address, and phone number

2. Date and time of sale

3. Transaction number

4. Product or service description

5. Cost of goods and services

6. Any relevant taxes

HitPay POS system automatically creates a basic printed (and/or) digital receipt after you’ve made a sale. But why not go a step further? You can turn your receipts into valuable customer touchpoints with a few simple tweaks. Here’s how!

How to market your brand on HitPay POS receipts

Add a personal touch by customising receipts with header or footer text

Use your receipts as an opportunity to put a smile on your customer’s faces and encourage them to come back. Include a warm thank you message, friendly reminders to join your loyalty program, or spotlight an upcoming promotion. It’s a low-cost and easy method to communicate with your customers after the sale.

Example: Use your receipt to include a friendly reminder for members to use their VIP cards.

Add customised header and footer text to your receipts with the HitPay mobile app to give your receipts that personal touch.

Show or hide information on receipts

Selling across multiple stores or locations? Show unique addresses and phone numbers on your receipts, depending on your physical location. HitPay’s receipt maker also allows you to hide your address or phone number on your receipts if you want to keep information private.

Convenient printing options

Skip the hassle of setting up your desk printer by printing receipts straight from your phone with HitPay’s Bluetooth receipt printer. Connect the HitPay app with any Bluetooth-enabled receipt printer, and you’re good to go.

Turn your phone into a cash register

Besides receipt customisation, HitPay’s POS also comes with other powerful payment tools for your business:

• Tap, and you're done! No need to lug around bulky credit card terminals or pay rental fees. Accept credit card payments directly from your mobile device with HitPay’s Tap To Pay.

• Scan, pay, repeat: Generate a QR code on your phone for easy in-person payments. That way, selling at a pop-up event is as simple as scanning a code. You’ll save time on cashier duties, perfect for peak sale seasons.

The best part — you can use all these payment tools without any setup or subscription fees.

From credit cards in Singapore to credit cards in the US, HitPay's POS allows you to accept card payments across multiple countries easily.
