These free receipt templates for Word will help you create a receipt for your small business or personal financial dealings. Like other free Microsoft Word templates, you'll be able to open the receipt template and then customize it with your own information. After that, you're ready to print and hand it over.

There are many types of receipt templates below including delivery receipt templates, cash receipt templates, rent receipt templates, sales receipt templates, donation receipt templates, and purchase receipt templates.

If you don't have Microsoft Word, you can still use many of these free receipt templates in a free word processor. Another option, though it's temporary, is to get a month long trial of Microsoft Office for free (which includes MS Word).

Some of these receipt templates are downloaded as an archive file where the template must first be extracted before you can use it in your word processing program. Though they should open fine on their own, you may need to use a free file extractor to open some of them.
