The Paid Transactions report is the primary reporting tool to understand financial details of a paid transaction including payment method (card, check, cash), payment date, gross and net values, covered fees, and other transaction data. The report can be exported for a single campaign or multiple campaigns.
The Paid Transactions report is helpful to:
See all paid contributions made to your campaign, regardless of payment method (card, cash, check)
Map financial details from the Paid Transactions report, like gross and net values, to specific details collected during the transaction, like custom questions asked to a donor (on the Donations report)
See financial details of all paid transactions, like gross and net values, and monitor how many supporters are covering fees and the associated amounts
Reconcile transactions with your payment processor

Understanding the Impact of Cancellations
There may be times when you need to cancel an item for a supporter, and the following outlines the impact of this action to the Paid Transactions report.
If the paid transaction type is an order, the transaction will always appear on the Paid Transactions report, regardless if some or all items from the order have been canceled.
If a Donation or Shop Product is canceled from the order, the gross and net values will reflect the original transaction, and the category-specific column will deduct the value of the canceled item.
If the transaction, regardless of type, includes a ticket that is later canceled or the fundraiser permanently deleted, all values will reflect the original transaction values.
If the transaction type is a donation, and the donation is canceled, the transaction will no longer appear on the report.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Paid Transactions report not match the raised value on my admin dashboard?
The raised value on the admin dashboard includes transactions that are paid, open, and failed. The Paid Transactions report focuses solely on paid transactions. Below are definitions of each status.
Paid Transaction | Paid transactions are contributions to your campaign where the payment method was successful. |
Open Transaction | Open transactions are contributions to your campaign that are unpaid. Examples of when this can happen include an open pledge that will be charged once activity is finalized, an open tab, or an unpaid sponsor. |
Failed Transaction | Failed transactions are contributions to your campaign where the payment method used is a card and the payment was not processed successfully. Examples of when this can happen include payment for an open tab, a recurring donation, or a pledge. |
Why are the contact information fields (phone, address 1, address 2, etc.) blank for a transaction in the Paid Transaction report?
Common reasons for blank fields in the Paid Transaction report include:
The setting was set to disabled for the specific checkout experience at the time the transaction was completed so the field was not shown to the individual.
The setting was set to optional for the specific checkout experience at the time the transaction was completed, and the individual did not provide a response.
The transaction was completed using the dedicated raffle checkout experience, and phone and mailing address is not collected.
The transaction was completed using the admin terminal and fields were not populated during checkout.
The transaction was for a donation that was manually added using the Offline Donation function.
