allEtronic Helps Save Over 9 Million Trees Per Year By Delivering Receipts To In-Store Customers Digitally

FULLERTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Finally, consumers can radically “go green” by using a high-tech, low environmental impact solution that doesn't cost them a cent. The new digital receipt service from allEtronic lets retailers offer paperless receipts to their customers in a safe and secure way that saves energy while helping simplify one’s financial life.

“We quickly realized that our service is more than just a good idea and a convenience – it’s a way for us as consumers to create a positive change in our environment without it costing us a thing.”

Digital receipts from allEtronic are helping save 9 million trees and prevent the release of nearly 4 billion pounds of harmful CO2 emissions each year. The eco-friendly and business-friendly technology was also developed to help consumers eliminate a wallet, purse, pocket, or shoebox full of paper receipts.

“Every day, consumers have to deal with the nuisance of getting a paper receipt. Me, and millions of other consumers are either cramming receipts into a wallet, purse, pocket, or shoebox. Consumers within the USA eventually throw away enough of their receipts in one year to fill more than 2 million garbage trucks,” points out Isaac Lay, Co-Founder and CEO of allEtronic. “We quickly realized that our service is more than just a good idea and a convenience – it’s a way for us as consumers to create a positive change in our environment without it costing us a thing.”

Digital receipts automatically help consumers organize receipts for budgeting and tax preparation purposes. Plus, the system can also help detect card theft sooner because cardholders can check transaction usage instantly, rather than waiting a full month to view their statements. Businesses who implement the system reduce the cost of receipt paper and coupon delivery while also helping the environment and creating invaluable goodwill and brand integrity within the communities they serve.

Simply swipe a credit card in the normal fashion and the receipt automatically and instantly appears in your secure and private allEtronic account. Or you can just give the cashier your phone number or email address to receive your receipts electronically. And customers still retain the option of getting paper receipts by just asking for them at checkout.

Consumers have the option of linking as many credit or debit cards to their allEtronic account as they wish. Most importantly, and this ensures privacy and guarantees security, the allEtronic system only requires the first 6 and last 4 digits of the card number in order to electronically transmit a receipt into the consumers allEtronic account. At no time will allEtronic ever ask for or require the consumer’s entire card number.
