其他摘要：There are millions of purchases made by shoppers all over the world today and the only way to prove that they indeed bought the goods has over the years often been through a receipt that they are given upon payment. A large fraction of these receipts are printed on paper for customers/shoppers. Generating all these bulky sets of receipts is an expensive process to businesses, individual customers and the environment which therefore results in the need for a way of storing these receipts in an integrated fashion for the customers. Paper-based receipts are also easily lost, damaged and are cumbersome. Having the process of issuing the receipts in a paperless form can address this problem. This has been achieved in this paper by developing an integrated system that provides a means for the customer to get the receipt and storing it straight away through a customer account, which businesses can use to send the receipt instead of printing it. The methodology that was used is Prototyping.
