E-commerce accountants · Amazon and FBA sellers
We break down every settlement, track referral, fulfilment and storage fees for each product, and show you which products actually make money.
"Each settlement report has dozens of fee types, and my accountant just records the deposit."
"I do not know what each product really costs me once Amazon has taken its share."
"Storage and aged-stock charges are quietly eating my margin."
"I spend on Sponsored Products but cannot tell which campaigns make a profit."
What we do for Amazon sellers
All of it included in your monthly fee.
One payout, broken down
Your bank sees one figure. Behind it are sales and a string of deductions, each of which belongs on its own line in your accounts.
We prepare that as a balanced journal for every settlement, and a qualified accountant reviews it before it is posted.

The compliance position
Amazon collects your sales figures and reports them to HMRC once you make 30 or more sales, or more than about £1,700 (€2,000), in a calendar year. If your books show only the net payouts, they will not match what HMRC holds. We record your gross sales with every fee shown separately, so they do.
Between payouts you can ask "Which ASINs lose money after fees and advertising?" and see the working. How it works.
Settlement journals for every channel, receipt capture and a cash forecast included. Selling on more than one marketplace? See how we handle every channel.
Yes. A deposit is what is left after Amazon has taken its fees, so recording it as sales understates your turnover, hides the fees and puts VAT on the wrong figure. It also will not match the gross sales Amazon reports to HMRC.
No. We prepare the settlement journals ourselves, with every fee on its own line, and review them before they are posted. There is no separate subscription.
We identify where Amazon has stored your stock and which overseas VAT registrations that triggers. Overseas VAT registrations and returns are quoted separately.
A free discovery call to look at how your payouts are being recorded and what that is hiding. No obligation.
