Where Payment Link Payments Appear in Reports and Payouts
A payment link payment is recorded as a card transaction against the store the link belongs to, on the same storekit Payments account as that store’s online orders. It is not an order, so it never appears in All Orders or in the sales reports built from orders. It does appear in the accounting reports:
Refunds issued from a link appear in All Transactions as Refund rows and are deducted from the payout in the same way as order refunds.
The only place a payment is shown with its link is the link’s own Transactions table, so use that to confirm a specific payment before reconciling against All Transactions.
Can’t Find a Payment?
- Check the link first. Open Payment Links, click the link and look for the row in Transactions. Only a Paid (or Partial Refund) payment is a completed transaction; Pending means the payment has not yet been confirmed by the card network, so wait for its status to change before treating it as complete or asking the customer to pay again.
- Check the date range and store. All Transactions defaults to the last month and is filtered by the store you have selected; a link belongs to the store it was created for.
- Check the status filter. The Status filter has two options, Success and Failed; clear it to see both. A payment that was declined appears as Failed and is never paid out.
- Allow for the payout schedule. A payment taken today is not in a payout yet. On the default daily schedule payouts use T+2 timing; weekly and monthly schedules take longer. Check your payout schedule, then compare the transaction date in All Transactions with the Created date of your payouts.
- Look for the amount, not the link name. Because All Transactions does not show the link’s name or reference, match on Date and Gross amount.
