Net settlement

A funding method where processing fees are deducted before your sales are deposited, so you receive the net amount. The alternative is gross funding, where full sales are deposited and fees are debited separately.


Why it matters for your business

Terms like Net settlement aren't just jargon — they sit behind what you actually pay to accept payments. Understanding them is the difference between reading your statement and being at the mercy of it. If you're not sure how this shows up in your own costs, the fastest way to find out is to have someone read your statement line by line.
