That looks correct to me. However, I don't like to classify a "Bonus" as Income, unless they are taxable. I would record it as a negative expense, again if it is not taxable. That is how I record cash back on my various credit cards, it is more of a purchase discount than an income amount.

I wanted to more correctly account for the local "moped sharing" company we have here, which offers to buy a prepaid package that comes with a bonus. In this case, I bought a 90€ package that comes with a 40€ bonus, so my in-app wallet is credited with 130€. I planned to store that 130€ in Assets:PrepaidExpenses, to be whittled down whenever I do rent a moped, at which point it's expensed. Now, that sounds all fine to me, but I'm not really sure where those 40€ should come from. Right now I did: 2021-10-08 Buy package Assets:PrepaidExpenses:Moped 130.00 Liabilities:CreditsCards:…… 90.00 Income:Bonuses 40.00 2021-11-04 Rental Assets:PrepaidExpenses:Moped 4.93 Expenses:Travel:Rental 4.93 (etc) But I don't think that should really come from Income: :\ Opinion/suggestions/recommendations? :) Thank you in advance! -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`.
