This is everything you need to know about Receiptify, and how to use it.

What is Receiptify?

Receiptify is a website that gives you an insight into your music streaming habits, allowing you to have a look at what your top streamed songs are from three different time periods - all time, the previous six months and the previous month.

The site comes from a Twitter user called Michelle Liu (@fullcontrol), who tweeted on Sunday 20 September, “had an urge to make something today so I spent the day coding this! It generates a “receipt” based on your most played tracks on Spotify :)) you can check it out at receiptify.herokuapp.com”

Since then, the tweet has gathered over 36,000 likes and 31,000 retweets.

The Receiptify website states that the inspiration comes from the Instagram account @albumreceipts, which compiles whole albums onto receipts with different designs. That Instagram account is run by digital creator, Melody You.

How to use Receiptify

To use Receiptify, first visit the Receiptify website.

The web page will prompt you to log in with your Spotify account. Tap the prompt button and go through the process of logging in.

After that, you can then choose which receipt you’d like to see - your top tracks either from last month, the last six months or from all time.

The website will then generate a receipt which lists your most played songs from that time period.
