How to Manually Generate Tax Receipts
Learn how to send tax receipts to donors when automatic sending was not enabled at purchase.
When setting up a fundraiser, organizations can choose whether tax receipts are sent automatically when a purchase is made. If automatic sending was turned off, you can still generate and send receipts to donors manually — either one at a time or all at once.
How to Manually Generate Tax Receipts After Purchase
Generate a Receipt for an Individual Donor
- From your Dashboard, navigate to Results > Tax Receipts.
- In the top-right corner, select the fundraiser you'd like to generate receipts for.
- Use the search bar to find the donor.
- Click the three-dot menu next to their name and select Generate Receipt.

Bulk Generate Receipts for All Donors
- From your Dashboard, navigate to Results > Tax Receipts.
- In the top-right corner, select the fundraiser you'd like to generate receipts for.
- Click Generate All at the top of the page to send receipts to all donors at once.

Note: If your organization has a BCC email address set up for tax receipt notifications, that address will only receive emails when a receipt is generated at checkout. BCC notifications are not sent when receipts are generated manually using either method above.
