Bank & Credit Card Reconciliation

What reconciliation means

In plain English, reconciliation is matching every transaction in your accounting software to your bank and credit card statements. When they match, you know your records are accurate. When they don't, we find out why and fix it.

Why it matters

Without regular reconciliation, errors compound. A missed transaction here, a duplicate entry there — over time, your books drift further from reality. Regular reconciliation catches problems early, prevents fraud, and keeps your financial picture clear.

What I provide

I reconcile all your bank accounts and credit cards monthly, flag any discrepancies, and resolve them. You get the confidence of knowing your balances are accurate and your records are clean. This service is available standalone or as part of a monthly bookkeeping package.

Common questions

Bank & Credit Card Reconciliation: Frequently Asked Questions

What is bank reconciliation, and why does it matter?

Bank reconciliation means matching every transaction in your books against your actual bank and credit card statements, so the balances agree to the penny. It catches duplicate entries, missing transactions, bank errors, and fraud. If your books aren't reconciled, every report built on them — including the profit number your taxes are based on — could be wrong.

Doesn't QuickBooks reconcile my accounts automatically?

No. QuickBooks bank feeds import your transactions, but importing isn't reconciling. Bank feeds can duplicate transactions, miss some entirely, or get matched to the wrong entry. Reconciliation is the step where someone checks the imported data against the statement and confirms the ending balance is right.

How often should I reconcile my accounts?

Every month, for every bank account and credit card. Reconciling monthly keeps problems small. If an account hasn't been reconciled in a while, my catch-up service works backward month by month until everything ties out.
