ROLLER Payments reporting updates

The ROLLER Payments beta program has been very successful with participating venues in Europe and Australia. As we prepare to make ROLLER Payments available for general release we’ve introduced several reporting updates.

• Transactions report
  This report combines the three previous export reports (Authorised, Settled and Payouts) into a single report that provides a full audit log of each transaction as it transitions through the payment lifecycle from authorised to settled and paid out.
• Daily Summary report
  Aggregates daily activity by channel and payment method and displays payment submissions, authorised payments, refunds, chargebacks, settled funds and acquiring fees on those settled funds.
• Daily Balances report
  Records the daily balance of the venues merchant account. As transactions settle daily the value of funds available for payout increases in the merchant account and this report enables venues to track the funds pending payout.
• Transactions list
  ROLLER Payments also includes a new Transactions interface which replaces your gateways merchant portal. Staff can filter the list of transactions and easily find transactions by card number, transaction ID or Booking ID.
