   2. Click Add recipient to send the payment receipt to multiple contacts.
   3. Edit the subject line or the message that will appear on the body of the email your customer receives.

      You cannot save a customized message to appear by default when sending payment receipts. If you want to customize the message, edit it before you send the receipt.

Sending invoice receipts automatically (when a payment is recorded), is not an option in Wave. However, if you have a recurring invoice with automatic payments enabled, a receipt is automatically sent every time a customer’s credit card is charged or their bank account is debited.
