Bolt offers merchants three types of statements to use for reporting and reconciliation:
Bank Transfer Statements
Bank transfer statements are daily reports of settled transactions that were included in a bank transfer. Use them to reconcile bank statements and analyze fee data.
Transaction Event Statements
Transaction event statements include all transaction events and can be exported in daily or monthly reports, and in CSV or PDF format. Use them to review transactions and payment methods, and analyze activity by division.
Dispute Statements
Dispute statements are monthly reports of disputed transactions and their status. Use them to track, manage, and reconcile your disputes.
