Amazon bookkeeping that answers: Did we make money?

Amazon sales are not the same as profit. We reconcile settlements, fees, advertising and inventory into one set of books, so you can see what you actually earned and what you can afford to spend next.

Selling on Shopify too? We handle both.

What your books should answer

  • Did we make money?
  • What did our inventory really cost?
  • Where did fees and ads go?

Payouts are not profit.

An Amazon deposit isn’t just sales. It includes fees, refunds, adjustments and money from different periods.

When the whole deposit gets booked as revenue, your P&L stops telling you what you actually earned.

Add advertising charges on a credit card and inventory costs that don’t line up with sales, and even a strong sales month can be hard to understand.

That’s a problem when you’re deciding how much inventory to order or whether to increase ad spend.

Your books should make those decisions easier, not leave you guessing.

Amazon bookkeeping that gets the details right.

We handle the monthly bookkeeping so you have numbers you can use. We’ll walk through the scope of your business on the call.

Settlements tied to the bank

We break down Amazon settlements and reconcile them to your bank deposits. Sales, refunds, fees and adjustments go where they belong instead of getting lumped into revenue.

Fees and advertising in the right place

Referral fees, fulfillment fees, storage costs and advertising expenses are categorized and recorded in the appropriate periods. You can see what selling on Amazon actually costs.

Inventory and COGS that follow your sales

We work through how you purchase, hold and sell inventory so your cost of goods sold reflects your business. Whether you sell on Amazon, Shopify or both, your books should tell one consistent story.

One bookkeeper owns your books. A second person reviews the work.

Selling on Amazon and Shopify? You need one set of books.

Many ecommerce brands sell through more than one channel. Your accounting shouldn’t be split between two firms with different ways of handling inventory, fees and cost of goods sold.

We handle Amazon and Shopify together, with one set of financial statements and one team responsible for the numbers.

Behind on your books? We can catch up.

If the history is messy, we start by understanding how far back the cleanup needs to go and what’s missing. We quote that work separately, get the history straight, and move into ongoing monthly bookkeeping.

Connectors help. Accountants finish the job.

Already using A2X or Taxomate? Great. Those tools can make the data flow easier.

But someone still needs to map the accounts, check the fees, reconcile the settlements and make sure the books are actually finished.

That’s our job.

Get the numbers right. Then put them to work.

Bookkeeping tells you what happened. Ecommerce CFO support helps you use those numbers to make decisions about cash, inventory and spending.

  • Revenue after refunds and adjustments

  • Inventory and cost of goods sold
  • What the business actually earned

Ecommerce CFO

For sellers who want ongoing help understanding what comes next, our ecommerce CFO service adds a cash forecast and regular reviews to answer “Can we buy inventory?”

Built for sellers making real decisions with their money.

A good fit

You’re selling on Amazon, or on Amazon and Shopify, and you need reliable books to understand profitability, inventory purchases and advertising costs.

You may have growing sales but unclear margins. Or your sales reports look good while your bank balance tells a different story.

You want accountants who understand how ecommerce works and take ownership of the bookkeeping.

Not the right fit

If you only need a tax return, a DIY bookkeeping course or a one-time business valuation, this isn’t the service you’re looking for.

Common questions about Amazon bookkeeping

Do you only work with Amazon sellers?

No. We work with Amazon sellers, Shopify sellers and brands selling through both channels. We bring everything into one set of books.

We already use A2X or Taxomate. Is that fine?

Absolutely. Those tools can help move transaction data into your accounting system. We still review the mappings, reconcile the activity and make sure the financial statements are accurate.

Is this coaching or done-for-you bookkeeping?

It’s done-for-you bookkeeping. We handle the accounting work rather than teaching you to do it yourself.

Where can I find your prices?

We discuss pricing on the call. It depends on your sales channels, transaction activity, inventory setup and whether your historical books need cleanup.

What if I need help deciding how much inventory to buy or spend on ads?

That’s where our ecommerce CFO service comes in. It adds a cash forecast and regular reviews so you can make those decisions with a clearer view of your finances.

Ready for books that answer the real questions?

Seller Central says one thing. Your bank account says another.

Let’s get your Amazon sales, fees, advertising and inventory into books that show what you actually earned, so you can make your next inventory decision with better numbers.
