Link My Books
Link My Books is a cloud-based bookkeeping automation tool for ecommerce sellers and accounting firms. It connects marketplace payouts from Amazon, eBay, Shopify, Etsy, TikTok Shop, Walmart, and WooCommerce to Xero or QuickBooks Online, breaking each payout into sales, refunds, fees, and taxes and posting clean summary journal entries. It is designed for sellers who want accurate, reconciled books without manually categorizing every Amazon settlement.
Within a seller's workflow, Link My Books sits between the marketplace and the general ledger. It focuses on payout reconciliation, tax treatment, and cost of goods sold tracking rather than operational functions like inventory planning or PPC. Teams should verify supported regions and accounting plan compatibility, since the service requires Xero or QuickBooks Online and is not intended as a standalone accounting system.
