The gaming industry is the most sought-after market, especially in India. As of 2021, India was considered to be among the top five markets for mobile gaming. The revenue generated from this industry is massive. This industry itself is said to be worth around ₹ 22,300 crores. As you see, the gaming industry sounds really promising. For the gaming industry to work at such a level, they have to deal with various customers and transactions. For example, if you take a gaming company, where people can play games on which you can make money. Then the number of transactions a company like that has to process is incomprehensible. Keeping track of each transaction made by a player would be tedious. Also, checking if the company itself has received the correct amount from the respective payment gateway partner is very difficult.
Cointab’s automated reconciliation system provides a solution to these problems. It helps verify the company’s internal data report with the payment gateway report and bank statement. After this, the software produces a result table showing if payments are received correctly from the payment gateway partner or not. This way company can easily verify the deposit transactions.
Reports Required for Deposit Transactions Verification
Internal / Deposit Report
This report consists of order IDs and details of all the transactions for which the amount is deposited by the customers.

Cointab Result
The process starts when the software reconciles the internal data report of the deposit report with the Payment Gateway. This is done to check if the payment gateway has taken the correct amount from customers and has then paid the correct amount to the company. Finally, the software compares the payment gateway report with the bank statement. This helps determine if the amount the payment gateway partner claims to have paid actually reaches the company’s bank account. The reconciliation results are displayed by the software as given below.
