As a business owner, it’s important to take advantage of every tax deduction available to you. One deduction that is often overlooked is credit card processing fees. Each time you process a credit card, your merchant provider charges you a processing fee. Your business can deduct the full cost of these fees, but they can be tricky to keep track of. That’s why, finding the proper accounting software to help track business expenses can save you a tremendous amount of money.
Accurate record keeping is important
If you want to claim merchant fees as a deduction, you are responsible for keeping accurate records. Deducting these fees from gross earnings allows you to pay taxes on less of your business’s income, which means you pay less in taxes. Therefore, having an automation tool in place to consistently track business expenses makes sense. Not only will it save you hours of time, it will also help reduce your tax burden.
