Enter a bank service fee while using a third-party merchant service in QuickBooks Online
by Intuit•6• Updated 3 months ago
Learn how to record a bank service fee while using a third-party merchant service in QuickBooks Online.
If you’re using a third-party merchant service to accept credit card payments, the credit card company will deduct bank service fees from the payment. This means the payment amount on your bank register will not match the deposit amount in QuickBooks Online.
Once the transaction is recorded and you know the bank service fee, you can enter the fee as a negative amount on the Bank Deposits screen when depositing a payment. This ensures that your bank register matches the bank statement.
