   After clicking Apply Filters, you'll be able to see the Deposits Summary. The first item is the Gross Sales or the total sales you earned. The gross sales do not include the credit card fees deducted from the transaction.
   
3. You can also see the total amount of credit card fees deducted from the transactions.
   The fees are based on the merchant plan you selected when signing up for credit card processing. Click this link to learn more about the Vagaro fees and rates: Credit Card Processing Fees and Rates.
   
4. You can also see the total amount of Refunds you've processed, Chargebacks, and the Net Deposit.
   A chargeback happens when funds are returned to a customer's bank account or credit card following a dispute about a transaction.
   The Net Deposit is the net profit that is received. This is the amount that is seen on the bank statement.
   

Understanding a Deposits Statement

1. Below the Deposits Summary, you'll be able to see all the credit card deposits for each date. On the left side of the report, you can see the date the transaction was deposited to your bank.
   
2. Next, you can see the number of swiped and typed transactions that were deposited, the total dollar amount you received for each transaction, and the total dollar amount for both transactions.
   
3. In the Typed and Swiped Fee field, you can see the total fees deducted from typed and swiped transactions. The Transaction Fee shows you if any additional fees were added.
   For example, if you are on the Large Merchant Plan, the fee deducted from a swiped transaction is 2.2 percent, plus 19 cents. The 19 cents is the transaction fee.
   To the right of this column, you can see the Total Fees that were deducted, the Monthly Fee if you're on the Large Merchant plan, and the Fixed Acquirer Network Fee (FANF Fee). This is a fee that VISA assesses each of its merchants. Depending on the size of the account holder, it can range from $2 to $380,000.
   
4. Next, you can see the number of refunds and chargebacks you've had. You also can see the total dollar amount for both these items.
   
5. Lastly, you can see the Net Deposit. This shows you the profit you earned on that date.
