When you make a sale in Nigeria, the default receipt is usually the tiny thermal paper slip from a POS machine or receipt printer. But there's a better way. Here's why digital receipts are winning.
Problems with POS/Thermal Receipts
- They fade - Thermal paper receipts fade completely within months
- They're small - You can barely fit 10 items on one slip
- No branding - Generic white paper with no business identity
- Easily lost - A paper slip in a pocket or bag is easily misplaced
- Not shareable - Can't forward to an accountant or partner
