ReceiptKit for WooCommerce

Turn any thermal printer into a WooCommerce receipt printer

Real receipts and kitchen tickets for online orders. Print from your browser for free on any printer — or add the free bridge and they print themselves on Star, Epson, and ESC/POS printers the moment an order comes in. No PDFs, no one clicking print all day.

The problem

Online orders shouldn't need a print clerk

WooCommerce is great at taking orders — but getting each one onto paper at the counter or in the kitchen usually means a PDF invoice plugin, an office printer, and a person clicking print on every single order.

ReceiptKit connects your store to the thermal receipt printers you already own. You design the receipt once — logo, item modifiers, totals, QR codes — set a print rule, and every matching order prints silently in about a second.

Invoice plugins are the right tool for emailed A4/Letter paperwork. For paper at the counter and in the kitchen, you want a receipt — designed for thermal paper and printed without anyone touching a mouse.

Features

Built for real stores

Rule-based automation

When an order is placed, paid, refunded, or hits any status — if your conditions match — it prints. Route by payment method, total, SKU, category, country, and more.

Kitchen tickets done right

Variations and product add-ons print bold under each item, with the customer's note — so "no onions" never gets missed. Huge order numbers readable across the room.

Design the receipt visually

Start from polished WooCommerce templates — customer receipt, kitchen ticket, delivery/pickup ticket, gift receipt, packing slip, refund slip — and restyle them in the visual editor or with AI. No code.

Refund receipts, automatically

Full and partial refunds print a refund slip the moment they happen — once per refund, never retroactively.

Plays well with your other plugins

Delivery-slot pickers, tip add-ons, gift options — list their order meta keys and the values print on your receipts. Only the keys you choose are sent.

Live status in WooCommerce

See every bridge and printer — online, out of paper, cover open — right on the plugin's settings screen, with a health indicator on each rule.

FAQ

Common questions

Which receipt printers work with WooCommerce through ReceiptKit?

Star Micronics, Epson, Rongta, Munbyn, and most ESC/POS-compatible thermal printers. Tested end-to-end: the Star mC-Print3 and TSP100/TSP143 series, the Epson TM-T88 series, the Rongta RP326, and Munbyn 80mm models — with a compatibility matrix for other models.

Does it print automatically when an order comes in?

Yes, with the free bridge. Print rules fire on the events you choose — order created, any status change, or a refund — check your conditions, and print silently on your thermal printer. No PDF step, no dialog, no one clicking print on every order. Without the bridge you can still print any order from your browser, free and unlimited, on any printer installed on your computer.

How is this different from a PDF invoice plugin?

Invoice plugins generate an A4/Letter document you still have to print by hand on an office printer. ReceiptKit renders a real receipt you designed — sized for thermal paper, with your logo, QR codes, and item modifiers — and delivers it straight to the receipt printer in about a second.

Can different orders print to different printers?

Yes. Add one rule for a counter receipt and another for a kitchen ticket on the same event, each pointing at its own printer — or route by conditions like shipping vs. local pickup.

What do I need to get started?

A free ReceiptKit account, the free bridge app (Windows, macOS beta, or Raspberry Pi) running next to your printer, and the WooCommerce plugin. Setup takes about ten minutes.

Does it work with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?

Yes — the plugin uses WooCommerce's standard order APIs and declares HPOS compatibility.
