Why Payment Providers Benefit from Partnering with a Specialist for Digital Receipts

At ReceiptHero, we work closely with payment companies, terminal providers, and acquirers to help them deliver seamless digital receipt experiences to their merchants and customers. As the industry shifts toward smarter, Android-based terminals, many providers are exploring how to embed digital receipts into their offering.

Focus on Core Competencies

Payment companies should concentrate their resources on developing and improving their core products, such as transaction processing, risk management, and acquiring services. Building a digital receipt platform internally often diverts attention and budget from these priorities.

With over seven years of experience in digital receipt infrastructure, ReceiptHero provides a ready-to-integrate solution that enables payment providers to introduce digital receipts without the need to recruit or maintain a dedicated development team.

Anticipating Customer Expectations

Once a basic receipt delivery service is launched, merchants and consumers inevitably request additional functionality. Loyalty integrations, feedback tools, customization options, and data analytics quickly become expected features. Meeting these expectations requires continuous investment and ongoing product iteration.

ReceiptHero has already built and refined these capabilities, allowing payment companies to meet market demand immediately and avoid the complexity of developing new features from the ground up.

Lower Cost and Faster Integration

Developing a digital receipt solution internally can take several months and consume substantial engineering resources. By contrast, ReceiptHero’s Receipt API enables integration within one to two days, allowing payment providers to activate merchants quickly and cost-effectively.

This rapid deployment model ensures faster time to market and minimizes internal development effort, enabling teams to stay focused on their primary product roadmap.

Branded as Your Own

ReceiptHero’s platform can be fully white labeled, allowing payment providers to deliver digital receipts under their own brand identity. The service looks and feels as if it was developed internally, while avoiding the substantial upfront development costs and long implementation timelines. This approach allows payment companies to maintain a consistent customer experience and strengthen their brand presence across every interaction.

Comprehensive Terminal and Retrieval Capabilities

ReceiptHero’s solution supports both QR code display directly on the payment terminal as well as NFC functionality if available from a terminal hardware level. Also available is a retrieval service for merchant and end users who wish to access receipts later. This dual capability ensures a consistent and frictionless digital receipt experience, enhancing customer satisfaction and driving adoption.

Enhanced Revenue and Retention Opportunities

Offering an advanced digital receipt experience creates measurable value for payment companies. A richer feature set contributes to stronger merchant retention, higher customer satisfaction, and greater differentiation in a competitive marketplace. By leveraging ReceiptHero’s platform, payment providers can unlock new revenue potential without increasing internal costs or complexity.

In summary, building and maintaining a digital receipt service internally can dilute focus and slow innovation. Partnering with ReceiptHero allows payment companies to deliver a proven, scalable, and feature-rich digital receipt solution that complements their core payment offerings while accelerating growth and customer engagement.
