Abstract
An electronic receipt system may generate electronic documents including receipt content associated with a transaction between an account holder and a third party, and automatically link the electronic documents to secure records corresponding to account transaction records in a secure database. An account holder may subsequently view an electronic document including the receipt from a secure network platform displaying the secure records for multiple transactions in the account. In some aspects, the electronic receipt system may retrieve the receipt from an email message transmitted to an email address assigned to the account holder by the electronic receipt system. In other aspects, the electronic receipt may be retrieved using an application on a user device corresponding to the electronic receipt system.
