Reconciliation Questions Answered

Which account?

Import to 'Authorize.Net Clearing', reconcile against real bank account.

Why don't my amounts match?

Authorize.Net deducts transaction fees from deposits. Your bank receives less than the sale amount because fees are subtracted before funding.

Can I automate this process?

Our converter handles Authorize.Net reconciliation without subscriptions — upload your settlement CSV and get a QuickBooks-ready file in 60 seconds. For automated API-based syncing, third-party apps offer monthly plans, but our tool works perfectly without recurring fees.

How People Use This

Authorize.Net batches transactions at 4 PM Pacific but my clients' banks post deposits two days later. QuickBooks shows the sale on Monday, the bank shows the deposit on Wednesday, and the batch total never matched because fees were deducted before funding. The tool aligns settlement dates to actual deposit dates so the reconciliation finally ties out.

I kept finding $3-$8 differences between my Authorize.Net settlements and QuickBooks deposits. After months of writing them off, I discovered it was per-transaction fees plus the monthly gateway fee being split across batches. The reconciliation breakdown shows gross vs. net for each batch so I can record the exact fee amount.

We process refunds through Authorize.Net, but chargebacks come through the bank directly. That creates two different paths into QuickBooks — one from the gateway report, one from the bank feed. The tool flags settled refunds separately so I can tell which deductions are refunds I initiated versus chargebacks I need to dispute.
