AC agents can ticket this for you. It's not handled too often by them, but usually at least one person knows how to do it.

I took a picture of it (didn't make a copy - but I can print out the picture which is basically the same thing as a copy). Would an airport agent accept that as proof?
You would need the voucher. The agent has to submit it when they use it for payment.
