Processing mollie transactions

Question

There are already several topics on this, but I can’t find a conclusive answer to my question/situation.

Suppose I sell something to a private person for £10 on a webshop.

Seven days later, Mollie transfers the amount to my account (£9, given £1 transaction costs).Should €9 be added to the daily receipts on the date of receipt, and the invoice from mollie (€1) be entered as an expense? Doesn’t this mean that I have recorded a profit of €8 instead of €9?

Dear MJ,

You charge your customer €10. So you include €10 in your daily receipts.

The €1 transaction fee is an expense for you, so you include it in your expenses. You record this using a document you receive from Mollie.

This is the only correct way to record your income and expenses, giving you the correct profit of €9.

Kind regards,
