01Marketing

Know what your marketing actually banked.

Truence reads every ad platform, store and processor you spend through, then reconciles what they claim against the deposits that cleared your bank — order by order, starting with this one.

Figures shown throughout this page are illustrative sample data from one last cycle at one store.

Twelve connected surfaces — ad platforms, stores, processors, banks and books — all reconciled against the one deposit that cleared.

One month, one account. Every figure above traces to a deposit you can open.

02What Truence does

Verification, not attribution.

Attribution models estimate which touch deserves credit. Truence does not estimate. It takes the spend that left your account, the revenue the platforms report, and the deposits your bank confirmed — and it makes those three agree, or it shows you exactly where they do not.

Truence never prices a channel before the money is spent. Every return figure is built from a settlement that has already landed — $256,700 confirmed against $142,800 spent.
How it reconciles

Every surface read, one cleared deposit.

Spend leaves the ad account, the store records the order, the processor settles it and the bank confirms the deposit. Truence holds all four against each other, every day, and shows the part that agrees.

03One order, followed all the way

A serum, an advert and the deposit that settled it.

Luminara sells a radiance facial oil · 30ml. On Day 2 one customer saw the advert; on Day 7 $63.93 of it cleared the bank. This is every step Truence recorded in between.

01Day 2 · the ad is seen

It starts with a scroll, and a cost that is real.

A customer sees the Spring set carousel on Meta and taps through — Truence records the click and the exact spend that bought it, straight from the ad account.

Two platforms claim it. Only one order exists.

Meta and Google Ads each report the full $68.00 — $136.00 of claimed revenue for a single bottle that was bought once.

04Day 5 · the money moves

The parcel ships and the processor takes its cut.

Stripe settles the order into batch 8791 after fees, so the amount actually travelling to the bank is $63.93 — not the figure on either dashboard.

Credited once, to the channel the money agrees with.

Truence credits $63.93 to Meta and removes $72.07 of claim no deposit supports — and the same test runs on every order behind every channel figure on this page.

04Spend and deposits

Every dollar out, matched to a dollar in.

What Truence just did for one order, it does for every order in the month — spend read as it leaves, deposits read as they clear, reconciled daily.

  • Spend read directly from each ad account, not re-keyed
  • Deposits matched to processor batches, fees and refunds included
  • Anything still open is labelled, never quietly averaged in

Three platforms claimed the same order. Truence keeps the one the deposit supports and drops the duplicates.

05Channel return

See which channel the bank actually paid for.

Reported return and verified return sit side by side for every channel, so the gap between the platform's story and your account is visible before you spend again.

  • Reported and confirmed revenue on the same row
  • One order credited once, even when three platforms claim it
  • Fees, refunds and disputes removed before the return is calculated

The red path is the part of the platform's claim that never reached the account. It is named, not averaged away.

06Campaign and creative

Judge a creative on the revenue that settled.

Reported revenue is what a creative claimed. Settled revenue is the part Truence could match to confirmed deposits. Both are shown, so a winner has to earn it.

  • Viewed, purchased and deposited shown as one path
  • Creative ranked on settled revenue, not clicks
  • Spend held against the deposit window it belongs to

07Follow one deposit

Open any deposit and see what made it.

Every verified figure can be taken apart. Pick a deposit and Truence opens it backwards — payout batches, orders, then the campaigns behind them.

  • Sources traced back to processor batch references
  • Balance to the cent, with unexplained shown as its own line
  • The same evidence a lender, buyer or auditor would ask for

08Next month

Plan the next budget on a verified history.

Truence builds next month's allocation from the returns your bank already confirmed, and labels the forecast as a projection so nobody mistakes a plan for a result.

  • Proposed moves sized on confirmed channel return
  • Projections marked as projections, always
  • Re-checked against deposits as the new month clears
