A standard receipt includes the plan name, billing period, payment method, subtotal, tax, and total amount paid.

In this example, the user is subscribed to the **Basic Plan** and the receipt reflects a straightforward annual payment. This is the most common receipt structure for users who have not changed plans during their billing cycle.

## Example 2: Plan Upgrade with Proration (Pro Plan)

If you upgrade from one plan to another during your billing period, your receipt may include a charge for the new plan, a negative line item (credit) for the unused portion of the previous plan, and an adjusted subtotal and tax calculation.

A negative quantity (such as -1) indicates a credit applied due to a subscription change. This is normal and reflects proration — meaning you only pay the difference when switching plans.

## What Appears on Your Receipt

All receipts include an invoice reference number, transaction ID, billing period, currency code, payment method (last 4 digits masked), tax breakdown, total amount paid, and vendor information processed via Paddle.com.

The charge will appear on your card or bank statement as:

*PADDLE.NET SIMPLEBKLT*

## Important Notes

Receipts are generated automatically when payment is completed. Each receipt is tied to your unique subscription ID. If you upgrade mid-cycle, credits will appear as negative line items. Tax amounts depend on your region.
