# Receipts

Currently we deliver a simple formatted text version of a terminal receipt. This is suitable for printing on a receipt printer. You can adjust the width in characters to center the receipt on your paper.

*We are working on a pdf version as well.*

Go to the receipt endpoint and put in your charge or refund `id` and get in return the receipt.

### Create your own terminal receipt

You can also create your own receipt, by fetching the data from Vibrant and format yourself, this is our recomendation in such a case.

It is though possible to get all data that you need from the `Charge` object under `paymentMethodDetails`.

Your receipt should include:

<table><thead><tr><th width="248">Data</th><th width="434">Property on charge</th><th>mandatory</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Terminal id </td><td><pre class="language-json"><code class="lang-json">terminalId
</code></pre></td><td>✅</td></tr><tr><td>Transaction amount</td><td><pre><code>amount
</code></pre></td><td>✅</td></tr><tr><td>Date and Time</td><td><pre><code>created
</code></pre></td><td>✅</td></tr><tr><td>Unique transaction id</td><td><pre><code>id
</code></pre></td><td>✅</td></tr><tr><td>Status (success/failed)</td><td><pre><code>status
</code></pre></td><td>✅</td></tr><tr><td>Card brand (visa/mastercard)</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.brand
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>funding (credit/debit)</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.funding
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>MaskedPan / last 4</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.last4
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>read method<br>(contactless)</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.readMethod
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>auth code</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.receipt.
authorizationCode
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>auth response code</td><td><pre><code>paymentMethodDetails.cardPresent.receipt.
authorizationResponseCode
</code></pre></td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

### Create your own refund receipt

In order to create your own reciepts for a refund, take that `refundId` from the refund object and fetch that Charge.

From there you can create the exact same terminal receipt as mentioned above - you just need to state that it is a **refund**, not a sale 👍
