Mark-off file

This file contains a record of all successful transactions that Paymentology processes on behalf of a store of value like a wallet or a bank account. It includes the financial transactions between a store of value and Paymentology.Paymentology generates the Mark-off file daily at midnight in your local time zone. The file matches a report from a store of value for all successfully processed transactions.

Ideally, the Mark-off file report and the store of value report should be in sync each day as the systems mirror one another. In case of any discrepancy, you should log a ticket via your Zendesk Portal. Select the *Report a Service Incident* form, and then choose *Reporting* and *Discrepancy* under the Request Type, indicate the file’s date and the transaction in question. We’ll promptly address the issue.

You can generate the Mark-off file by sending an HTTP GET request and downloading the report as a CSV file.
