Using the Money > Master Data > Bank Accounts form, create a special bank account for payments made by bank cards in the bank-acquirer or in the bank related to acquirer if the acquirer is not a bank.
Actually, card payments will be accumulated by the acquirer on some service account and, in the system, they will be recorded as prepayments paid to this acquirer.
With the specified frequency, the acquirer will transfer the accumulated amounts to your entity's bank account (created in Step7); this can be recorded as a Bank Receipt with the From Supplier transaction type. The amounts that the acquirer charges the entity for transactions, can be applied as Bank Charges. Use the Money> Bank Documents > Bank Receipts form. For details, refer to Adding a Bank Receipt.
