The Easiest Way to Get an Amazon Receipt in 2024 (4 Steps)

Getting a paper receipt for your Amazon order is easier than you might think. Every purchase comes with an order invoice that you can print for your records.

In this short guide, we’ll show you step-by-step how to get an Amazon receipt on your computer or email and how Shoeboxed can help you automate your Amazon receipt organization!

How do I find my Amazon purchase receipts?

The digital receipts for your Amazon purchases can be found in your account, either through the website or through the Amazon app.

If you’re on your computer, click “Returns & Orders.” If you’re on your phone, tap “Your Orders.”

A full list of your most recent orders will show up on the next page. 

You can filter your orders to the last 30 days, 3 months, for the year, or orders you made in the past 3 years.

Orders will have a “View Invoice” button that you can click to view or print the Amazon receipts.

Looking for a warranty slip?

Amazon offers a 1-year warranty on products that are faulty or damaged. A third-party seller may offer extended warranties for longer than 1 year.

Your purchase invoice from Amazon is enough to get a replacement product, as long as it’s within 1 year of the delivery date.

How to get an Amazon receipt on your computer

You can find all of your orders and their digital receipts in your Amazon account online.

Step 1: Log in to Amazon

Amazon sign-in page

First things first, make sure you’re logged into your Amazon account.

Step 2: Find your orders

Visit the “Returns & Orders” page at the upper right of your screen.

Click the “Returns & Orders” button located at the top right corner of your screen. It’s in between your name and the cart.

The orders tab is where you’ll find the order details of all your items purchased, including completed, canceled, and pending orders.

Step 3: Locate the order you want a receipt for

Once you’re on the “Your Orders” page, you can either search for the order you want or filter your orders based on the date.

You can filter your orders to show the last 30 days, 3 months, orders for the entire year, or orders you made in the previous 3 years.

Step 4: View the invoice

Click “View Invoice” to get your Amazon receipt.

When you find the order you’re looking for, click the “View Invoice” button. You can then print the receipt for safekeeping.

How to get an Amazon receipt from your email

Amazon sends its users an order confirmation email for every purchase. Inside the email is an order number that you can use to find the receipt.

Here’s how to get an Amazon receipt from your email:

Step 1: Open the order confirmation email

Click the order number under “Details.”

Open your inbox and tap on the confirmation email sent to you by Amazon.

Once you click it, you’ll be taken to your Amazon account tab to view the order details.

Step 2: View the invoice

Select “View or Print invoice” to see your purchase receipt.

When you view your order’s invoice, you’ll see “Final Details for Order #…” at the top of the page. 

Under the order number is a hyperlinked “Print this page for your records” button.

Click “print” and the receipt will be sent to your printer!
