THE CHALLENGE

Sales are growing. But do you know what you're actually making?

A marketplace payout is not your revenue, and revenue is not your profit. Refunds, marketplace fees, advertising and the cost of the products you sold all come out before you see what the business really earned.

Sales
$20,000
Refunds
-$1,200
Marketplace fees
-$4,800
Advertising
-$3,200
Inventory and COGS
-$8,000
Real profit
$2,800

WHAT YOU GET

Clear financials. Confident decisions. Tax-ready books.

Numbers you can trust

Your books are reconciled to bank accounts, credit cards and marketplace payouts, so the figures you see match what actually happened.

A clear picture of profitability

Revenue, marketplace fees, refunds, advertising, inventory and cost of goods sold are reflected appropriately, so you can see where your profit comes from and where it goes.

Books ready for taxes

Clean financial statements are maintained through the year instead of rebuilt at tax time, so tax preparation starts from reliable records.

YOUR FINANCIAL VISIBILITY

See the business behind the sales.

With books reconciled every month, your profit and loss shows how each dollar of sales turns into profit. That is the information you need to decide what to do next.

We match marketplace payouts to bank deposits and reconcile your bank and card accounts.

Close the books monthly

Each month we close your books and deliver a profit and loss statement and a balance sheet.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with Amazon sellers, both FBA and FBM?
+

Yes. We keep the books for Amazon sellers whether you fulfill through Amazon (FBA), ship orders yourself (FBM) or use both. We reconcile Amazon payouts, fees and refunds so your financials reflect what the business actually earned.

Can you handle Shopify and other online stores?
+

Yes. For Shopify and other online stores we reconcile payment-processor payouts together with fees, refunds and your bank and card activity, so sales and costs are recorded consistently in your books.

Do you support sellers who use several channels?
+

Yes. If you sell on several marketplaces and through your own store, we bring each channel into one set of books so you can compare channels side by side. The number of channels and accounts is one of the factors that shapes the monthly price.

Do you handle inventory and cost of goods sold (COGS)?
+

Where it applies, we account for inventory and COGS within the agreed scope, based on the purchase records and costing method you keep. We do not manage inventory operations such as purchasing, stock counts or fulfillment. How precise COGS can be depends on the quality of your inventory records, and we confirm the approach with you before we start.

Do I need A2X?
+

No. A2X is not required. It is one of several ways to bring marketplace sales into accounting software, and it does not replace bookkeeping, because the books still need to be reconciled, reviewed and maintained. We work with marketplace reports, QuickBooks integrations, A2X and other workflows, whichever fits your setup. Setting up or fixing A2X is a separate scope.

Do you prepare and file sales-tax returns?
+

Sales-tax review, returns and filing are separate services and are not part of the monthly accounting price. Marketplaces such as Amazon generally collect and remit sales tax on marketplace sales, but your own store or other channels may create separate obligations. Requirements vary by state, so we review your situation and confirm the scope with you first.

Is business tax preparation included?
+

No. Business tax preparation is a separate service with its own scope and price. Keeping your books current throughout the year gives your tax preparer reliable financial statements to work from, and we can quote the two services together.

What if my books are behind or messy?
+

We start by reviewing the current state of your records. If earlier periods need to be caught up or corrected, historical cleanup is a separate scope that we quote before work begins. Once the books are current, we maintain them month to month.

How much does eCommerce Accounting cost?
+

Pricing starts from $299/month. The final price depends on your transaction volume, the number of channels and accounts, inventory complexity and the condition of your existing books. Additional scope, such as cleanup, setup, business tax preparation or sales-tax work, is quoted separately. We confirm scope and price before work starts.
