Hi,

I booked a Gold membership but only received a very meager receipt from Stripe which our accounting isn't too happy with. We can live with this one receipt but I had to cancel the membership as we don't want to have this in our books on a regular basis.

The biggest part in German receipts are:

  • date (is fine on stripe)
  • unique id (is fine on stripe)
  • a good address who the money goes to, basically something that a judge could send stuff to (this is missing)
  • taxes (none on stripe, not a problem from my side just means we won't get any VAT back or so)

So basically the address is missing.

Cheers,
Christian

Thanks for the heads up! We'll have to figure out the best way to implement this -- an optional address field wouldn't add much too this form. Whether or not Stripe emits a receipt with this data is another question.

optional address field

@agjohnson, @ctheune can correct me if I'm wrong, but you should not need to add any fields. The receipt should display RTDs address, not the address of the person/company who is subscribing.

Okay, finally took care of this. The change to get this on the receipts was small, but annoying enough to do with Stripe. New receipts should have this in the PDF version (html version doesn't appear to have our information).

VAT is another issue, I suppose we just need to collect that on signup/charges. I'll repurpose this issue to get that added.
