Frequently Asked Questions

Card swipe transactions typically incur Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) deductions (typically 1% - 2% plus 18% GST), and payment settlements may take T+1 or T+2 working days to hit your bank account. Our reconciliation tracks these net differences cleanly.
For high-volume retail or hospitality businesses, weekly reconciliation is strongly recommended to catch billing errors or duplicate debits early. For standard trading firms, monthly reconciliation is generally sufficient.
Yes. Banks routinely levy non-maintenance charges, cheque return fees, SMS charges, and loan processing charges that go unnoticed unless line-item reconciliation is conducted.
