Every charge runs through your own Stripe or Square account and deposits to your bank. AuctionCake records the payment, the line items, and the receipt — it never holds your funds.
- How a payment is recorded (and what a line item is)
- Card, cash, check, and bill-me-later invoices
- Full and partial refunds back to the original payment
- Provider differences between Stripe and Square
- Reconciling totals after the event
Detailed guidance is being written.
