Same thing. Received sounds more professional, got sounds more casual.

If you 'receive' something, someone gave it to you, you did not pick up and take it for your self. 'got' is more general and is used often when you buy something for yourself but you can still use it in place of 'recieve'.

You could also use 'recieve' when talking about mail, even if you bought the package because someone gives it to you.

'got' is synonymous with 'recieve '
'recieve' is not synonymous with 'got'
