Does PayPal Zettle offer tax receipts for donations?
At this time, PayPal Zettle isn’t required to, and does not, provide donor tax receipts documents.
If you need to collect donor data to issue tax receipts, we recommend you find an alternative solution to capture such information. We also suggest that you contact your legal and/or tax advisors to determine what tax receipt requirements apply to your organization.
Check which details your tax authority requires as they can vary by location.
