Square Capital offers financing to businesses by providing loans based on their sales history and business performance. These loans are typically repaid by taking a fixed percentage of your daily card sales, which aligns repayment with your business\u2019s cash flow\u2014so you pay more when business is doing well.
If your business takes a Square Capital loan, Synder makes managing repayments easier! As of July 23, 2024, you no longer need to manually account for Square Capital payments in your books\u2014Synder handles that for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Initial step<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    First, manually add the loan amount to your books. Typically, this should be recorded in the “Loan Payable” liability account. Synder will account for the loan repayments, but the initial loan amount must be entered manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How Capital Payments are synced in Per Transaction Sync<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    During Per Transaction Sync, Square Capital payments, along with payouts, are directly fetched from Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Go to Synder Settings. <\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Note<\/em><\/strong>: If funds are returned to you, Synder will sync them as a Deposit rather than recording them as an expense, accurately reflecting the money being returned to your account.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      How Capital Payments are accounted for in Summary Sync<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      During Summary Sync, Square capital payments for the day are consolidated, and the Loan Payable<\/em> group will be displayed in the Mapping<\/strong> tab. The recommended account type to select for this is Other Current Liability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
