What Stripe CSV exports include
Stripe offers three primary CSV exports: payments, balance, and payouts. Each serves a different reporting use case.
Payments exports include individual transactions with amount, currency, created date, customer, and status fields. Balance exports show net amounts after fees and refunds. Payout exports track transfers to your bank account.
Key fields to focus on
Not every column drives decisions. Prioritize these fields for most revenue dashboards:
- Created (UTC timestamp) — for time-series analysis
- Amount + Currency — revenue by period
- Status — filter for successful vs failed
- Customer ID — for repeat rate and cohort tracking
- Description/Metadata — source attribution if you tag checkouts
From CSV to dashboard
Upload your Stripe export and map these fields to standard metrics: MRR, success rate, and top revenue segments. Add date filters so weekly reviews stay fast.
