# Collections

> The cash customers actually paid each month, from payment records.

MRR is a run rate. **Insights → Collections** is cash: what customers paid each month, on the day they paid it. The two differ because of billing dates, annual plans, failed payments and one-time purchases.

![Monthly collections, with the categories and the Collected total numbered 1 and 2](https://mintcdn.com/one-mrr/r0eSCeyIYQOzU0L6/images/analytics/collections.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=r0eSCeyIYQOzU0L6\&q=85\&s=8ec1c837d57cba0289388f61951b223e)

## This month

The cards split this month's money by kind:

* **Subscription payments:** paid subscription invoices.
* **One-time purchases:** one-off payments, such as setup fees.
* **Credit packs and top-ups:** prepaid credits.
* **Refunds:** money paid back, counted in the month it went back (chargebacks too).

**Collected** is everything paid in, minus refunds. It's compared with the same point last month.

## Month by month, and who paid

**By month** charts each kind over your date range. Below it, open any kind to see its payments: largest or newest first, **By customer** or **By category**. Select a customer to open their details.

## How collections are counted

* **Stripe:** paid invoices (what was charged after any customer balance or credit, so spending a credit never counts twice), Checkout payments, and charges without an invoice.
* **Shopify:** subscription, one-time and usage sales.
* **Wix:** payout rows.

Amounts are before platform fees.
