Note 2: Synder is constantly working on adding new sales channels and payment platforms to the list of supported integrations. However, if you use some other provider not mentioned in the list of direct integrations, you will find the Excel import feature very helpful. It allows you to import any data from an Excel spreadsheet to Synder and then operate with the uploaded data as with regular transactions by syncing and reconciling them in your accounting.
