Manually logging Stripe transactions is tedious and error-prone, but automating bookkeeping with Zapier can simplify the process. Zapier integrates with Google Sheets to automatically log Stripe transactions, providing further analysis capabilities. To get started, a Stripe account, Google account, and Zapier account are required. A Google Sheet must be set up with clearly labeled columns before connecting it to Zapier. The integration allows users to select specific data fields from Stripe to populate in their Google Sheet, such as transaction date, ID, currency type, amount, and URL of receipt. Users can also create custom Zaps or use a pre-made template to automate the process.
