How to Create a Walmart Receipt With Receiptmint

Walmart receipts follow a specific layout that most other retailers don't use. Every item line carries a UPC barcode number and a single-letter tax flag. The header prints a manager name and a string of store/operator/terminal/transaction identifiers. The footer includes a TC barcode, an EFT debit transaction record, and a QR code for Walmart Pay. If you need to recreate that format, here is exactly how to do it in Receiptmint.

Open the Walmart Template

Head to the Walmart receipt template page and click the button to open it in the editor. The template loads with a pre-filled receipt based on a real Walmart Supercenter layout: store #02649 in Irving, TX, with 19 items, an 8.25% tax rate, and a debit payment.

You can start editing immediately. Every change you make appears in the live preview on the right side of the screen.

Edit the Store Header

The first text block contains the sweepstakes prompt ("See back of receipt for your chance to win $1000") and a survey ID. Below that is the Walmart spark logo, followed by a text block with the store details.

To match your local store, update these fields:

• Phone number — formatted as ( 214 ) 574 - 4517 with spaces around each group
• Manager name — MANAGER LORENZO MODESTO or your local manager's name
• Address — street, city, state, and ZIP on one line
• Identifiers — ST# 02649 OP# 000160 TE# 07 TR# 09183 (store, operator, terminal, transaction)

Walmart prints these identifiers on a single line directly above the item list. Keep that same placement in the editor.

Add Item Lines

Walmart item lines follow a consistent pattern. A standard item looks like this:

COOKIES      007874209949 F     2.98 0

That's the product name, a UPC barcode number, the price, and a tax flag. The tax flags you'll see on Walmart receipts:

For weight-based items like produce, the format changes:

BANANAS      000000004011KI
 1.21 lb  @ 1 lb /0.48          0.58 N

The first line shows the item name and UPC. The second line shows the weight, per-unit price, extended price, and tax flag.

For quantity items like single rolls:

SINGLE ROLL  000000009898KF
 6 AT  1 FOR      0.33          1.98 0

Walmart also prints markdown items with the original price:

REDUCED TO CLEAR       WAS 3.98
CHSY BREADST 068113116565 F     2.11 0

In the editor, all of this lives inside a single text block. Type each line exactly as it should appear on the receipt. The monospace font in the preview will match the spacing of a real thermal printout.

Set Up the Totals and Payment

Below the item list, add the subtotal, tax, and total lines:

                SUBTOTAL     40.45
          TAX 1  8.250 %      1.92
                   TOTAL     42.37
            DEBIT TEND     42.37
            CHANGE DUE      0.00

Walmart calculates tax on the sum of all items flagged with T. Items flagged F, N, X, or 0 are excluded from the tax line. Adjust the tax percentage to match your state rate.

Fill in the EFT Debit Block

The EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) block appears after the totals. It records the card transaction details:

EFT DEBIT        PAY FROM PRIMARY
  42.37  TOTAL PURCHASE
ACCOUNT #        **** **** **** 8657 S
REF # 720600046382
NETWORK ID. 0076 APPR CODE 485036
TERMINAL # MX607639

Each field maps to a real transaction record. Update the last four digits of the card number, the reference number, and the approval code to fit your receipt. If the payment method is cash instead of debit, you can remove this block entirely and adjust the DEBIT TEND line to show CASH TEND with the amount tendered and change due.

Add the Footer: Date, TC Barcode, and QR Code

The receipt footer prints the transaction timestamp, item count, and a TC (Transaction Count) number:

07/25/17    18:43:53
# ITEMS SOLD 19
TC# 5894 1401 3202 6695 6338

Below that, a Code 128 barcode encodes the TC number. The template already includes this barcode block. Update the value to match your TC number.

At the bottom, Walmart prints "Low Prices You Can Trust. Every Day." followed by a second timestamp and a QR code linking to Walmart Pay. The QR block is set to 35% width and centered, which matches the size ratio on a real Walmart receipt.

Export the Finished Receipt

Once the preview looks right, click the download button in the toolbar to export as a PNG image. The export renders the receipt at full resolution with the paper texture and any realism effects you've configured.

The default Walmart template uses the raster-worn paper style at 53% realism strength, which adds subtle aging and texture to the output. You can switch to thermal-fresh for a cleaner look or turn realism off entirely for a flat white background.

Tips for Accurate Walmart Receipts

• Match the font size. The template defaults to size 10, which is close to actual Walmart thermal print. Going larger will throw off line alignment.
• Keep block spacing at 0. Walmart receipts have tight vertical spacing between sections. The template sets blockSpacing: 0 for this reason.
• UPC codes are 12 digits. Standard Walmart item UPCs follow the UPC-A format (12 digits). The template includes real-format UPC numbers you can swap out.
• The TC barcode uses Code 128. Walmart encodes the transaction count in Code 128 format, not Code 39 or EAN. The template is already configured for this.
