Payments and Transactions

How to track and manage payments across all methods — Stripe, cash, bank transfer, and ePay — including recording manual payments and issuing refunds.

Payments and Transactions

Where to Find Transactions

Go to Finance → Transactions. This is a log of every payment attempt — successful or failed — across all payment methods.

Transaction Statuses

Status Meaning
Succeeded Payment was collected successfully
Failed Payment attempt was unsuccessful
Refunded Payment was returned to the member

Payment Methods

Stripe (card) — charged automatically when a member has a saved card. Appears in Finance → Transactions and in your Stripe dashboard.

ePay — similar to Stripe; processed online. Appears in Finance → Transactions.

Cash — recorded manually by you after receiving cash in person.

Bank Transfer — recorded manually by you after the funds clear in your bank account.

Recording a Manual Payment (Cash or Bank Transfer)

  1. Open the invoice from Finance → Invoices
  2. Click Record Payment
  3. Select the payment method (Cash or Bank Transfer)
  4. Enter the amount and date received
  5. Save

The invoice status updates to Paid (or Partially Paid if only a portion was collected).

Issuing a Refund

For Stripe payments:

  1. Open the transaction from Finance → Transactions
  2. Click Refund
  3. Enter the amount (full or partial)
  4. Confirm

The refund is sent to the member's card automatically. It typically arrives within 5–10 business days.

For cash or bank transfer payments: arrange the return outside Co-Desk and issue a Credit Note from the invoice to keep your records accurate.

Viewing Payments for a Specific Member

Open the member's profile → Invoices tab. You'll see all invoices and their payment status. Click on any invoice to see the linked transactions.


Common Questions

Can I see failed payments? Yes — Finance → Transactions shows all attempts including failures, with the error reason noted.

What if a member pays partially? Record the partial amount. The invoice shows as Partially Paid with the balance still due. Record further payments as they come in.

Can I export my transaction history? Yes — use the Export button on the Transactions list to download a spreadsheet for your accounting records.
