Read the article further to understand how to money is a funded and settled in batch in QuickBooks. To know more, contact QuickBooks Customer Care.
The funds usually reach to your bank account within 2-3 business days when you process a credit card charge. However, the waiting period which is also known as the funding period. The funding totally depends on the on the time of day you enter your transactions. The funding period is also determined by the financial institution you choose your transactions to be deposited to, and the time taken by the bank to verify and process electronic deposits.
For example, if the transactions in a particular batch occurred prior to the return date, or if the total amount of the transactions exceeds the preset thresholds then the batch of transactions will be sent back and the associated batch(s) will be delayed/suspended up to 6 calendar days. You need to check the transaction funding varies by the merchant with the help of the information that is provided during the initial application approval.
Here’s the list of things that happen after a credit card charge is processed:
AUTHORIZATION
The total amount is authorized against the cardholder’s account in order to confirm the cardholder have sufficient credit. (In cases of unusually large amount of transactions for an added level of security, you may be prompted by telephone for authorization. Your call directly goes into the credit card voice authorization center which is a central processing hub. The cardholder’s issuing bank plays an important role here as it authorizes or declines a transaction).
SETTLEMENT
The charge amount is actually submitted for payment later that day, when the charge is submitted to the bank for settlement. QuickBooks support does this for you automatically. After all the above procedures at this time funds can actually start to move between accounts.
FUNDING
At this stage the money arrives in your bank account. You usually receive the amount within two business days.
Your bank notifies you that QuickBooks support has sent funds to your account on the second day of settlement. This does not mean that your bank has cleared the funds. The Merchant Service Center shows the deposit status as pending when funds are in this state. When QuickBooks gets a confirmation from your bank that the funds which were deposited have been cleared, the status changes from pending to Funded. Search for deposits in the Merchant Service Center, if you want to know the status of your funds.
Please note: In case, you void a transaction before it is batched, the authorization for that amount remains, placing a hold on the customer’s credit for around 7 to 10 days (or up to 30 days, it depends on the policies of the cardholder’s issuing bank). So be careful when you are processing a charge, because even voided transactions can tie up your customer’s credit. Thought there are some exceptions to 3pm auto-batching, such as: checks and payments received through QuickBooks Point-of-Sale version 10.0 and earlier, Terminals, Cash registrations some Renovation accounts, and some non-merchant link accounts.
