Guide to Astra Dashboard Reports

Last updated: July 24, 2026

Your Astra Dashboard offers four reports that give you visibility into your program's transaction activity:

  1. Transaction Report

  2. Debit Transfer Activity Report

  3. Chargeback Report

  4. ACH Returns Report

Use these reports to reconcile your records against three key sources:

  • Your settlement account. Match transfer amounts, fees, and statuses against the funds Astra settles to your account.

  • Your external bank account. Track funds debited or credited to your bank account, including interchange and network fees, chargebacks, and ACH returns.

  • Your monthly invoice. Verify interchange and network fees, and Astra fees billed to your program each month.

Each report focuses on a different part of your program's activity, so you may need more than one report to fully reconcile a given period. The sections below describe each report and the fields it includes.
