Q: Can I get emailed receipts with apple pay?

I Would ask your bank that question, my guess is yes, your bank will have the option to send email notification.

I would like an enhancement request for using Apple pay. If I use apple pay at any of the vendors that support it, the receipt should be part of the Apple pay history. Apple pay should also have the option of printing or emailing the receipt for future needs.

Apple is the middle man here and is not your retailer. It’s up to your retailer to provide a receipt, not Apple. Apple Pay doesn’t see a receipt, it doesn’t see your account, it only processes the payment exchange. I don’t understand why you seem to think Apple controls anything other than the payment. It’s your retailer or your bank that should be doing this.

Agreed. Apple is not the retailer but they are capturing all of the receipt info to be passed to the credit card company.

In similar vein, Uber provides a receipt after using their car service -- granted they are not only the processor but the retailer / service provider.

In any case, it's not an unreasonable request to Apple to provide a receipt view or email. If there is a concern over cost, then Apple should charge an annual fee for receipt / email service.

When I used ApplePay at the Apple Store on Tues, they asked if I preferred a printed receipt or would I prefer one to be mailed to me.  I think this is totally up to the merchant. 

So you need to give each merchant your email address? That is if it's even configurable on their side.

If only we could choose not to have paper receipt anymore. It's such a waste of resources. Most of the time we throw the paper receipt away, the second that we get it.

Note that Apple Pay has strong privacy measures built-in. Payment transactions are between you, the merchant and your bank / card issuer. Apple does not store the details of your transactions.

For example:

• If you pay in a store, Apple doesn't collect any transaction information that can be tied back to you (if Location Services are turned on, Apple may receive limited anonymous data).
• If you pay within an app, Apple Pay only retains anonymous information (which doesn't even include the exact purchase amount).
