Reports in your Zettle POS online

Sales and payments overview: This provides a quick summary of your sales and refunds for the selected time period, broken down by the different sales channels used.

In the Payments overview module, you can see a breakdown of the different payment methods that you accept when you sell with Zettle POS. You also see your total fees.

If you want to explore your sales and payments further, click the View report link and you’ll be directed to the relevant section on the Sale details page.

Sales by hour: The Day view of the Reports overview page is where you can see a Sales by hour graph, which shows the sales details for the selected day. The graph shows which hours were the best for sales so that you can take appropriate business decisions, such as increasing your staff for example.

Top selling products: This table shows your 10 best-selling products for the selected day, week or month. It shows details such as name, variant, sold quantity, returns, and total. Click the View report link for a more detailed picture of how your products are performing.

Export: To export detailed sales and product reports from the Reports overview page, click Export at the top and choose your preferred option. These are the same reports that are also accessible from the Sales details and Sales by product page.

Sales details: This gives you a clearer insight into how your business is doing and allows you to dig deeper into your sales, payments and staff performance. With the date picker, you can get sales data for a specific date range and compare to last year's sales.

Big numbers: This section gives you a quick overview of important business KPIs, as well as comparing to last year's numbers.

• ‘Total sales’ shows your sales including tax
• ‘Number of sales’ shows how many sales you have made
• ‘Number of returns’ shows how many returns you have made

Sales by month: This graph is displayed when you pick a date range that is longer than a month. The graph shows your sales on a month-to-month basis.

Payments and fees: Here’s an overview of the payments you’ve taken, refunds (if you’ve made any) and the fees connected to your payments.

The first table gives an overview of the payments you’ve taken that have been made via Zettle POS and totals your collected payments excluding fees and refunds. The second table shows cash payments and refunds.

‘Zettle collected payments’ consist of card payments made via card reader, payment links and PayPal invoices.

Gift cards: Get an overview of how many gift cards have been sold, returned and redeemed, and their amounts. When a gift card is sold, it is not counted as a sale and therefore it won’t show up in the total sales and sales channels section until it is redeemed.

Sales by sales channels: This table gives you an overview of how much money you make and refund. It breaks down all the different channels you use when you sell with Zettle POS.

Sales channels

• Point of sale – the sales from the card reader connected to your app
• Payment Links – sales you’ve made via payment links
• Sent invoices – the sales for which you’ve initiated an invoice

FAQs

Why can’t I see tax on my payments?

Payments aren’t taxable, therefore our reports don’t show tax on a payment level. Instead, when you make a sale, you can see how much of that sale is tax in the ‘Sales by sales channels’ section.

Why are products with the same name duplicated in the product sales report?

This is because product sales are aggregated in reports by several attributes: product ID, product name, product variant name, product category name, tax % and settings (i.e. switching from prices including taxes to prices excluding taxes). If you’ve changed any of those attributes for a product, it is reported as a new product in your report.

Why aren't some product attributes visible in the product report?

It may be because we’ve only recently started using that attribute in our reports, and therefore we don’t have any historical data.

It could be because your product library isn’t synced on your device. If the attribute is added to your online account, make sure that your product library is synced on the Zettle POS app.
