Accounting software for ecommerce businesses
Ecommerce accounting software has to unpack payouts that bundle sales, fees and refunds into one deposit. Adopt keeps the books and monthly close current, and you approve every entry.
How ecommerce businesses handle this today.
Payouts bundle everything. One deposit can hold hundreds of orders, minus fees and refunds.
Several sales channels. Your store, marketplaces and payment apps each pay out on their own schedule.
Money goes back out. Refunds and chargebacks arrive after the sale is recorded.
Ad and shipping spend adds up. Hundreds of card lines need the right account every month.
