SumUp + KudTax

Automate daily Z-report bookkeeping for SumUp – reconcile cash sales, card payments, tips and daily totals into DATEV entries.

SumUp is the card reader for small businesses, market stalls and selling alongside the online shop. Amounts are low, transaction counts are high, and payouts usually arrive the next working day as a daily total. For bookkeeping that means many small sales, many small charges, and one bank entry that has already netted the two.

What to watch for with SumUp

The daily payout already arrives net

SumUp deducts the charge per transaction and transfers the day's total. Capture only the bank entry and the charge expense is missing entirely while revenue is understated by the same amount — which adds up fast at high counts and small amounts.

Tips do not belong in turnover

A tip taken through the terminal is, depending on who receives it, not consideration earned by the business. Booked wholesale as revenue it inflates both turnover and VAT with no supply by the company behind it.
