How to account Closed or Semi-Closed Wallets in account books

As wallet uses have increased over the years, how to consider wallet uses in terms of accounting. Open Wallets are just like bank accounts but do we consider Closed or Semi-Closed wallets as accounts too.

for example, a business order a product on paytm using their GST Number and it got returned and money reached PayTM wallet, actually PayTM is a medium only. supplier was issuing his own invoice but we can't put balance in his name so should we put PayTM Wallet under Bank or Cash section or under Creditors or under Reserve?

another example can be for recharge business where normally companies ask for bank transfer and deduct money from it upon recharges. It is also Closed Wallet so how to account this in business?

If the Wallet belongs to company then it is better to show under the head Cash and Cash Equivalent.
In case that wallet belongs to any individual for ex. cashier or other staff then you can show it as Imprest A/c or Advance to that individual.
