Using Multiple Payment Gateways on Shopify? We’ve Got You Covered!
When selling through Shopify, you can choose to accept payments via Shopify Payments or a wide variety of other payment gateways like PayPal, Klarna, Stripe, and more.
The good news? Link My Books supports all Shopify payment gateways.
No matter which ones you're using, we’ll automatically handle them for you.
⚙️ Deactivation of Payment Gateways
All available payment gateways will be activated by default when you connect your Shopify store to Link My Books.
Want to exclude some? Just head to:
Settings > Settlement Settings and untick any gateways you don’t want us to create summary invoices for.
📦 How Do Payment Gateways Work in Link My Books?
For each active payment gateway, we create a monthly summary invoice for every currency you’ve received payments in.
Example:
If you use PayPal and accept payments in both GBP and USD, Link My Books will create:
1 summary invoice per month for GBP PayPal sales
1 summary invoice per month for USD PayPal sales
It’s that simple.
🧾 Automatic Clearing Accounts for Each Gateway
Every payment gateway you use will have its own clearing account automatically created in your chart of accounts.
This helps make reconciling your payment gateway sales much easier.

🤔 Missing Settlements from Some Gateways?
Here’s the deal:
We only start pulling in transactions from the date the payment gateway was enabled.
So, if you ticked a gateway after your initial Shopify setup, we won’t automatically bring in historical data for it.
Need those earlier settlements?
