Above the payments list, Unisoft displays four summary indicators that recalculate in real time at each filter or search change. Well used, these KPIs transform the payments list into a mini dashboard: you pilot your collection without leaving the module.

The four KPIs in detailβ
Total amount (gross)β
This is the sum of amounts paid by donors, before bank fees deduction.
- This is the figure to use for internal communication ("we raised 12,480 β¬ on this campaign")
- It is also the total of tax receipts issued over the period β a donor always deducts on the gross paid
- Includes cash, check and transfer manual payments (which have no fees)
Net amountβ
This is what actually arrived in your bank account after platform fees were deducted.
- This is the figure to use for actual cash flow and bank reconciliation
- The gap with gross reveals the total cost of bank fees on the selection
- For manual payments (check, cash, transfer), gross = net (no fees)
Number of paymentsβ
Simple count of the number of lines displayed. Useful to:
- Know how many distinct donors you will contact before clicking Create a message campaign
- Measure the volume of activity ("47 payments this month, vs 32 the previous month")
- Check that your filters are neither too broad nor too narrow
Average amountβ
This is the average basket β a precious indicator to understand your donor base:
- A high average (300 β¬+) suggests a concentrated base of large donors
- A low average (20 β¬) suggests a popular large-volume collection
- Combined with a platform filter, it reveals which channels attract the largest tickets
Real-time updateβ
The statistics recalculate automatically as soon as you:
| Action | Effect on KPIs |
|---|---|
| Check a filter | Immediate recalculation on the filtered list |
| Launch a search by donor | KPIs restricted to the searched donor |
| Reset filters | Return to the global KPIs of the module |
| Change page (pagination) | No change β KPIs cover the entire selection, not only the visible page |
Pitfalls to knowβ
1. Multiple currencies are not convertedβ
If your selection mixes payments in EUR and USD, Unisoft displays the total in EUR only: USD payments are not converted or added. For a consolidated multi-currency view, filter by currency first.
See Managing multi-currency payments.
2. Multi-reason payments count as a single paymentβ
A payment of 500 β¬ split into 3 reasons (200 β¬ campaign, 200 β¬ pledge, 100 β¬ cash register) counts as 1 payment of 500 β¬ in the KPIs, not 3 payments each of its share. To analyze allocations, use the Excel export.
3. Fees being calculatedβ
For recent payments (less than 24-48 hours), the actual fees are not yet known: Unisoft displays an estimation. The net amount can therefore move slightly when fees are updated.
Useful filter combinationsβ
Campaign reportβ
| Filter | Value |
|---|---|
| (Reason Search field) Campaign | Choose the targeted campaign |
β The 4 KPIs give a complete report of the campaign.
Performance of a platformβ
| Filter | Value |
|---|---|
| Platform | Stripe |
| Date | Current month |
β Compare with PayGreen or GoCardless over the same period.
Measure the fee gapβ
| Filter | Value |
|---|---|
| Source | Online |
| Date | Quarter |
β Compare Total amount and Net amount to measure the total cost of fees over the quarter.
Evaluate the average basket by payment methodβ
| Filter | Value |
|---|---|
| Method | Check |
β The average amount of checks is generally significantly higher than that of cards.
