  • About the gift card reconciliation report

    When your organization uses shared gift cards with Square Multi-Account Suite, the gift card reconciliation report tracks gift card activity across your organization and shows how much each member merchant owes or is owed for a given period. The report breaks down loads, redemptions, refunds, fees, and transfers by member merchant and location.

    For details on how shared gift cards work, see Manage shared gift cards with Square Multi-Account Suite.

    Actual fund transfers between the operator merchant and member merchants happen outside of Square.

    Access the reconciliation report

    To view the gift card reconciliation report:

    1. Sign in to Square Dashboard and go to Reports > Organization on the operator merchant account.

    2. Select Gift card reconciliation.

    3. Select a reconciliation period.

    Configure fee responsibility

    The operator merchant chooses who covers gift card fees. These settings affect how the Amount for Settlement is calculated.

    Processing Fee Responsibility

    • Operator merchant covers (default): Processing fees are not charged to the member merchant. The settlement amount does not include processing fees.

    • Member merchant covers: Processing fees are deducted from the member merchant's settlement amount.

    Load Fee Responsibility

    • Operator merchant covers (default): Load fees are not charged to the member merchant. The settlement amount does not include load fees.

    • Member merchant covers: Load fees are deducted from the member merchant's settlement amount.

    To configure fee responsibility:

    1. Sign in to Square Dashboard and go to Items & services.

    2. Go to Gift Cards > Settings. 

    How the settlement amount is calculated

    The Amount for Settlement is automatically calculated for each member merchant based on gift card activity during the reconciliation period, including loads, discounts, redemptions, refunds, and transfers.

    The calculation depends on your fee responsibility settings. A positive amount means the member merchant owes the operator merchant. A negative amount means the operator merchant owes the member merchant.

    Note: Square provides the reconciliation data, but actual fund transfers between the operator merchant and member merchants happen outside of Square and must be handled by the operator merchant.
