MODERATORS
There is, the receipts don't have to be paper-based, they can be an email - REWE does that for example, if you have a loyalty card.
What they didn't manage to do is find a way to do it electronically without some sort of profile/registration.
I’m very sure that they would know a way, but there’s absolutely no incentive to do so.
The person talking about a QR code based system in another comment in this thread would suggest otherwise.
