Understand how Selstack records gross customer amount, taxes or shipping, platform fees, gateway costs and the net wallet credit, what requires review and how to reach pricing and reporting decisions based on the actual economics of each order.

Selstack separates checkout attempts, paid orders, wallet balances and payout activity so merchants can act from confirmed records rather than screenshots or assumptions.

Start with the recorded transaction

Open the relevant Selstack order, payment or wallet entry and match the reference, customer, amount, currency, gateway and current status. A bank alert or customer screenshot can support an investigation, but it does not replace the platform record or authorise fulfilment, refund or payout action.

Keep each amount in its own currency

For this topic, pay attention to gross customer amount, taxes or shipping, platform fees, gateway costs and the net wallet credit. Preserve the customer-facing amount, fees, merchant remittance and wallet credit as separate labelled values. Do not overwrite a recorded amount with a hand-calculated conversion or describe pending funds as available cash.

Wait for final states before acting

Pending payments, verification reviews, balance holds and provider callbacks need a defined waiting path. Refresh the canonical record once, note the time and avoid duplicate submissions. Act only when the status and available controls support the next step.

Resolve exceptions through the original record

Use the order or payout record that created the issue. Check for an existing refund, withdrawal or provider attempt before creating another. Keep customer communication factual: say what Selstack currently shows, what is being checked and when the next update will be given.

Protect sensitive financial information

Never ask for passwords, OTPs, full card details or identity numbers in ordinary email, chat or a custom form. Share only safe references and masked evidence with official support. Changes to payout identity, destination or permissions deserve additional verification and an audit trail.

Reconcile and prevent recurrence

A complete review should explain what the customer paid, what the provider confirmed, what Selstack credited and what remains pending or disputed. The intended outcome is pricing and reporting decisions based on the actual economics of each order. Record the lesson in the operating process and avoid treating gross checkout value as immediately withdrawable profit.

Put Understand Fees, Net Revenue and Wallet Credits into practice

Read the customer total, fee, remittance and wallet credit as different values for one paid order before calculating margin.

If Understand Fees, Net Revenue and Wallet Credits breaks down

If wallet credit is still pending, do not describe it as withdrawable or add it manually to the available balance.

Final checks for Understand Fees, Net Revenue and Wallet Credits

  • The public promise and internal process describe the same outcome.
  • Amounts, currencies, dates and statuses are read from their labelled Selstack records.
  • No password, OTP, full card detail or identity number is copied into ordinary notes or messages.
  • An owner and a clear next review point are recorded for anything still pending.

What good looks like

pricing and reporting decisions based on the actual economics of each order. The main mistake to prevent is treating gross checkout value as immediately withdrawable profit.
