The first receipt was launched back in 1892 and is still holding strong resulting in 10 million trees being cut down to make enough paper for receipts, and this is in the USA alone. Project ReceiptBook is the idea of digitizing this century old tradition and bringing it more in line with modern times. The ReceiptBook is essentially an application on the most portable computers on Earth, the smart phone, and utilises the Near Field Communication technology (NFC) that comes with the majority of smart phones. Users would just be simply required to scan their smart phones across a NFC transmitter connected to a pay register for the receipt to be transfered to the mobile device. No wires, no delays and most importantly no pesky paper receipts lingering in the wallet/purse. As well as saving countless amount of trees and preventing wildlife habitats from being destroyed, project ReceiptBook can help in minimising financial stress commonly found in young adults, more notably students. It does this by allowing budgeting with clear visual illustrations of where money is going alongside educational tips and tricks.
