eReceipts a Hit with Military Shoppers
DALLAS – Since its launch two years ago, approximately 334,000 military shoppers who prefer the ease and organization that an electronic receipt provides have skipped the paper and had documentation of their transaction emailed to them when shopping the Exchange.
From July 24 to Aug. 28, shoppers who enroll to receive electronic receipts and opt-in to receive special email offers from the Exchange will be automatically entered in the “Get Your Purchase Free” contest in which the Exchange will pay receipts up to $400 for five winners. Shoppers can go to www.shopmyexchange.com/sweepstakes for contest details.
“Receiving sales receipts by email makes storing and organizing much easier,” Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Sean Applegate, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s senior enlisted advisor. “An additional benefit to an emailed electronic receipt is that it helps reduce paper consumption, which is better for the environment.”
Registration for an electronic receipt is as easy as providing an email address and phone number at checkout.
