Are receipts automatically generated when I pay with WeChat Pay for dental care?

Receipts for payments made through WeChat Pay are typically generated by the merchant (in this case, the dental clinic or provider) rather than by WeChat Pay itself. Here's how it generally works:

1. **Merchant Issued Receipts**: When you make a payment using WeChat Pay at a dental clinic, the clinic will usually issue a receipt for the transaction. This receipt will include details such as the date, amount paid, description of services (or products), and possibly the merchant's information.

2. **Digital Receipts**: In many cases, the receipt may be provided digitally. After completing the payment through WeChat Pay, the clinic may send a digital receipt directly to your WeChat account, usually as a message or a separate notification within the app.

3. **Requesting Receipts**: If a receipt is not automatically provided or sent to you, you can always request one from the dental clinic. Most businesses are able to provide a receipt upon request, especially for services like dental care where documentation is important for insurance purposes or personal records.

4. **WeChat Pay Confirmation**: While WeChat Pay itself confirms the transaction within the app, this confirmation may not serve as a formal receipt for accounting or reimbursement purposes. It's advisable to obtain a detailed receipt from the dental clinic to ensure you have all necessary documentation.

5. **Retaining Records**: Keep a record of the transaction confirmation within your WeChat app and any receipts provided by the dental clinic for your personal records and potential future reference.

If you require a receipt for insurance claims, tax purposes, or other reasons, it's best to communicate this to the dental clinic at the time of payment so they can provide you with the necessary documentation promptly.
