Vendor settlement

Settlement that is already done when trading stops.

Every approved sale lands in the vendor ledger the moment the terminal confirms it. Splits, refunds, and closeout stay tied to the same record, from the first top-up to the final payout.

One record follows the money.

Five states, one ledger. No export, no re-key, no reconciliation meeting.

  1. 01

    Tapped

    The visitor pays at the terminal, kiosk, or app wallet.

  2. 02

    Approved

    The terminal confirms the sale on the spot.

  3. 03

    Split applied

    Policy-based splits apply per transaction, not at month end.

  4. 04

    In the vendor ledger

    The vendor ledger is allocated live, while trading continues.

  5. 05

    Paid out

    Settlement runs on schedule. Vendors see the exact amount landing.

Decide where every dollar lands.

Revenue splits are policy, not spreadsheet work. Set the split per vendor, and it applies to each transaction as it happens. Finance and vendors work from the same numbers all day.

Vendors see what finance sees.

Every stallholder gets a live dashboard showing their sales, the split applied, and the upcoming payout. No calls to the office, no surprises at closeout.

Coverage drops. Trading does not.

When a terminal loses coverage, it keeps trading. Transactions queue on the device and post when the network returns, and reconciliation still lands in one place.

Settlement on a schedule you choose.

Vendor balances update as approved sales are allocated. Bank payout timing depends on the payment method, service, and schedule agreed for the deployment. Confirm the cut-off and banking-day treatment before the first trading day.

Refunds keep the record straight.

A refund follows the same record as the sale it reverses. Voids stay traceable, and closeout never touches a spreadsheet.
