Settlement

The movement of processed payment funds into the merchant account or bank account.

What it means

Settlement is when approved payment funds are paid out by the acquirer or payment provider, often grouped into batches and net of fees.

Why it matters in travel

A travel booking can have multiple payments, refunds and settlement batches, so settlement needs to be matched back to booking-level records.
