Payouts report enhancements

Increased visibility of your future payouts has been added to the Payouts report. 

To help present this new detail as clearly as possible we have made some small changes to the report layout. We now present three distinct cards atop of the Payouts report. 

  1. Completed payouts. These are the payouts that have arrived in your bank account 
  2. In transit payouts. These are payouts that are currently on the way to your bank account
  3. Estimated in future payouts. These are the payouts that are currently being compiled by payment providers. These will in time move into ‘In transit’ and then ‘Completed’ 

Based on feedback we have added tables for each payout category broken down by payout date. All payout groupings can be drilled into at a payout, transaction and item level.  

We have also extended the 'completed payouts' chart to the last 12 months and added a table for payouts by revenue stream.  

Learn more about the Payouts report here. Feedback welcome below.

'Add-on' reporting improvements are now live


You can now easily find out which of your members have an active Add-on, what type of Add-on they have, along with the price paid. This information can be found via the new 'Members by Add-on' table on your Members Report. The same information is also available at a member level if you drilldown into any of the key member metrics at the top of this report.

To help with visibility of recent Add-on sign ups we have added a specific Add-on table at the bottom of our 'New Memberships' report. You can select a time period of your choosing and you will be able to see number of Add-ons purchased, broken down by type and with member level details available via further drilldown so you can see who has purchased and at what price.

As always your feedback will help drive further improvements in this area so please feel free to add yours below.
