What’s an Itemized Receipt? (And How Yours Can Actually Earn You Money!)

If you’ve ever tossed a receipt without thinking twice, you are throwing away free money. 🧾💸

That little piece of paper? It’s the key to earning rewards, surprise bonuses, and free gift cards with Fetch. Let’s talk about itemized receipts: what they are, why they matter, and how they can turn your everyday shopping into real rewards.

What is an itemized receipt, anyway?

An itemized receipt breaks down every product or service you purchased — line by line. Think of it as the full play-by-play of your shopping trip, including:

• Product names
• Individual prices
• Quantity
• Taxes and totals
• Date and time
• Store name and address

If it’s just a credit card slip or subtotal, that’s not itemized.

Why do I need an itemized receipt for Fetch?

Fetch scans your receipt to verify what you bought. An itemized receipt shows exactly which brands and products you purchased, so we can reward you with points. 

No itemized info = no bonus points.
That’s why we recommend always snapping the full paper or eReceipt, especially the part with product names and store info.

📱 Pro tip: eReceipts from Amazon, Walmart, and Instacart work, too. Just link your account in Fetch and earn automatically.

Can I really earn money by scanning receipts?

You bet. While you’re not getting cash directly, your Fetch Points turn into free gift cards, and fast.

Here’s how it works:

1. Snap a photo of your physical itemized receipt, and connect your email to scan for any digital receipts.
2. Earn points instantly (even more points when you take advantage of your personalized offers).
3. Redeem points for gift cards from Amazon, Target, Starbucks, and more.

People search every day for apps that let you scan receipts for money — Fetch is one of the highest-rated (and most fun) options around!

What kinds of receipts earn the most?

Look out for:

• Grocery store receipts (hello, brand bonuses!)
• Pharmacy and convenience store purchases
• Big box stores (Target, Walmart, etc.)
• Online orders from major retailers (linked accounts = 💯)

🌮 Even your fast food receipt could be worth points. Don’t sleep on that Taco Bell run!

Don’t trash that receipt (scan it instead!)

Now you know: an itemized receipt isn’t just a boring piece of paper. It’s your ticket to rewards, savings, and unexpected fun, all through Fetch.

So the next time someone asks, “What’s an itemized receipt?” you can say, “Oh, just the thing that earns me free gift cards.”
