Where to find it

/client-management/settlements

Before you start

  • Match settlement date, gateway account, external reference, gross amount, fees, refunds, disputes, and net amount.
  • Use gateway settlement sync only for configured accounts; missing provider setup means settlement data may not be current.
  • Reconcile settlement rows against bank statement and individual payment rows before marking finance close complete.
  • Export settlements for accounting only after the selected date range and gateway account are correct.
  • Settlement filters should include provider/gateway, payout status, settlement date range, and external reference when reconciling a bank credit.
  • A terminal/gateway sale can be paid for the member but not settled to the gym. The settlement page is the place to prove payout.

Daily workflow

  • Open Settlements during finance close or bank reconciliation.
  • Filter by gateway/provider and payout date, compare net amount with bank credit, then inspect linked payments when there is a mismatch.
  • Escalate unreconciled differences to owner/finance with provider reference and affected invoices.

Watch out

  • Do not treat a successful customer payment as settled money until the settlement/bank reconciliation proves payout.
