How to photograph receipts clearly
PURPOSE
Clear receipt photos help reviewers confirm amounts, dates, vendors, and payment details.
GOOD PHOTO HABITS
Place the receipt on a flat surface, use good lighting, capture the entire receipt, and make sure text is readable.
INCLUDE
Vendor name, date, total, tax, tip if applicable, and payment confirmation when shown.
AVOID
Avoid blurry photos, cropped totals, shadows, glare, and folded receipts hiding key details.
BEST PRACTICE
Review the photo before leaving the location if possible.
