Record every transaction in Google Sheets
Make every sale count. Automatically document every transaction without lifting a finger.
Manually tracking every PayPal transaction in Google Sheets isn’t just tedious—it’s a recipe for errors, wasted time, and missed opportunities. Each transfer or payment demands copying data point by point, hunting for status details, matching payer info, and double-checking currency and references. Over weeks and months, this burns hours you could invest in decisions and growth. Worse, delays or mistakes in your records can hurt your cash flow visibility and make reconciliation a nightmare, especially when tax season hits or clients ask for instant updates.
This Botize formula steps in as your always-on bookkeeper by automatically grabbing every new PayPal transaction and logging it neatly into your Google Sheets, row by row, every hour (or however frequently you set). No more copy-pasting or worried last-minute audits—each field from transaction date to payer details lands exactly where you need it, with your chosen columns, fully customizable to every business or reporting need. Instantly, repetitive admin fades into the background while your financial data stays perfectly up-to-date, accurate, and accessible—from anywhere, by anyone you authorize.

The entire process is ready to tailor to your frequency, filters, and sheet structure—so your business intelligence never skips a beat. Start now and turn transaction chaos into organized clarity!
