# Automated Payment Receipts

Automated payment receipts help keep families informed by delivering a receipt for every transaction directly to their email. Whether a parent makes a manual payment or is enrolled in automatic billing, they will have an immediate, reliable record of their payment.

#### How It Works

- A receipt is automatically emailed after every successful payment
- Applies to both manual payments and automated/recurring payments
- Receipts are delivered directly to the parent or guardian’s email inbox

#### Default Settings

- Automated receipts are enabled by default for all centers
- The first payer listed on the account typically receives the receipt
- Families are automatically opted in, no setup required

## Manage Receipt Preferences

Admins can update receipt settings for individual families upon request.

#### Turn Off Automated Receipts

Receipt settings can be configured in two locations:

[**POS Workflow**](/procare-desktop/docs/point-of-sale-payments)

- Receipt delivery can also be **enabled or disabled during the POS payment process**
- This allows staff to control receipt delivery at the time of payment if needed
