Digital receipts
The public receipt link MyNearStores issues for connected POS sales.
Every sale received from Lightspeed gets a receipt token such as RCP-199797BE1DEC4EC7 and a public link:
https://mynearstores.com/receipt/RCP-199797BE1DEC4EC7When the shopper is a MyNearStores member, the receipt is also added to their account in the app.
Open a receipt
The link needs no login. The same URL serves two formats:
- Browsers get a formatted receipt page the shopper can view, print or save as PDF.
- API clients sending
Accept: application/jsonget the receipt data.
curl -H "Accept: application/json" "$MNS_API/receipt/RCP-199797BE1DEC4EC7"{
"receipt_token": "RCP-199797BE1DEC4EC7",
"receipt_url": "https://mynearstores.com/receipt/RCP-199797BE1DEC4EC7",
"sale_id": "205c3adb-46e8-b492-11f1-a445bc459d39",

}Amounts are in major currency units (49.9 is $49.90). An unknown token returns 404.
Default Accept headers get HTML
curl and many HTTP clients send Accept: */*, which returns the HTML page. Send Accept: application/json explicitly.
Receipt links contain personal data
Anyone with the link can open the receipt, including the shopper's name, email and phone number. Share it only with the shopper.
