I've been to a small (physical) business where the receipts are only emailed. They ask you at the end "would you like the receipt emailed to you?" There's no printer.
Of course that also means you have to annoyingly enter your email address. They just hand you the "register" to type your email address. The "register" is an iPad.

My ideal solution: a NFC thingy (transmitter?) at the register where I can just tap my phone and the receipt is beamed to me without exposing my data or forcing me into a marketing database.
- jaredtking 12y agoI believe receipts would be a good application for QR codes. The reason being that that the store probably has a screen that can display the receipt QR code and a majority of smartphones support QR codes but not NFC (e.g. iPhones).
