Hello @MR19,
There are two ways to record your credit card fees in QuickBooks. Let me share them with you so you can get started.
- Creating a journal entry.
- Creating a deposit.
To begin with, you'll want to make sure you have an expense account for your merchant or credit card fees in your chart of account. Here's how to record it as a journal entry:
- Go to +New, then Journal Entry.
- Debit the fees from your Checking Account and Credit to your Expense Account.
- Description column is optional.
- Click Save and close.
To record your fees as a deposit, here's how:
- Go to +New, then Bank deposit.
- Scroll down to the Add funds to this deposit section and choose your expense account under the Account column.
- Description is optional, enter the fees under Amount column.
- Hit Save and close.
Please see attached screenshots at the bottom. You can also read this article about matching and categorizing bank transactions in QuickBooks Online for your reference.
