IndustryAccounting and tax for online sellers.
Amazon, Shopify, Etsy, Walmart and your own store: multi-channel books, marketplace sales tax, inventory and COGS, and the foreign-owner filings many sellers do not know exist.
Where this industry gets it wrong
- Sales tax in states where the marketplace already collects — and states where it does not
- Inventory and cost of goods sold estimated instead of tracked
- Amazon settlements booked as revenue instead of net of fees
- Foreign-owned seller LLCs that never filed Form 5472
Questions we hear from e-commerce & amazon
Amazon collects sales tax for me. Am I done?
For marketplace sales, mostly yes. For sales on your own Shopify store, no — you collect and file where you have nexus. We map both.
Can you connect my channels to the books?
Yes. A2X or similar tools post settlements by channel, net of fees, so revenue and COGS are right without manual work.
