Small Business Bookkeeping and Bank Reconciliation, Made Simple

Good books tell you where your money is and where it's going. This guide walks through the basics and shows how Proximent Bookkeeping keeps it simple.

Small Business Bookkeeping and Bank Reconciliation, Made Simple
01
The basics

What is bank reconciliation?

Reconciliation means checking that what your bank says matches what your books say. Each bank transaction is matched to an entry in your records, so missing or duplicate items stand out right away.

02
Checklist

Signs your bookkeeping needs help

  • Receipts and invoices are spread across email, paper, and phones.
  • You don't know your current cash on hand without logging into the bank.
  • Month-end takes days of copying transactions by hand.
  • You've found the same expense recorded twice.

Questions

Common questions

Are my bank login details stored by Proximent?

No. Bank linking runs through Stripe, so your bank credentials never touch our servers.

What happens to transactions that don't match?

They stay in an unmatched list where you can match, import, or dismiss them.

Can my bookkeeper use it too?

Yes. Users are unlimited, so your bookkeeper or accountant can have their own login.
