Gas Station Receipt Generator
A gas station receipt records a fuel purchase: the number of gallons or litres, the price per unit, the pump and grade, and the total including fuel taxes. Receipt Caker's fuel template reproduces this for mileage logs and expense claims.

What a fuel receipt records
A gas station receipt shows the fuel grade purchased, the number of gallons or litres dispensed, the price per gallon, the pump number and the total charged. That total already includes the fuel taxes built into the pump price, so the figure you enter is what the pump actually charged.
Receipt Caker's fuel template captures each of these details: you enter the volume as the quantity and the price per gallon as the unit price, so the line total reflects the pump exactly. The grade and pump number sit in the header, which makes the slip well suited to mileage logs and fuel-expense claims where volume and unit price both need to be visible.
Showing gallons and price per gallon
Enter the number of gallons as the quantity and the price per gallon as the unit price, and Receipt Caker multiplies them for the line total — 11.4 gallons at $3.39 produces a $38.65 charge. Because pump prices carry several decimal places, you can enter a precise per-gallon figure and the total rounds naturally to cents.
The live preview updates as you type, so you can match a real pump total exactly before exporting. That precision is what lets the receipt stand as an accurate fuel record rather than a rounded approximation, which matters when a fleet or reimbursement policy checks the volume against the amount.
Why fuel tax is usually already included
In the United States and many other countries, federal and state fuel taxes are baked into the advertised price per gallon rather than added as a separate line. For that reason the gas template usually leaves the separate tax-rate field at zero and relies on the per-gallon price to carry the tax.
If your locality itemizes an additional sales tax on fuel, you can still set a rate and it will print as its own line beneath the fuel charge. Either way, the receipt reflects how fuel is actually taxed where the purchase was made, so it reconciles against a real pump total.
Producing a fuel receipt in Receipt Caker
Enter the station name and location, put the grade and pump number in the header note, and add the fuel as a single line of gallons times price per gallon. Set the payment method, use an 80mm width with a monospace font, and the preview shows the total before you export.
